If a client uses a Configuration-Context header to specify the GC to use, then it would seem the server would either satisfy that request with the contribution defined in the GC or fail. That is, the contribution from any particular contributor would be defined in the GC. Under what circumstances could a request succeed and use a local contribution different from what is in the client specified GC?

> The spec allows a client to provide a configuration context using either a header or a query string, but there is no way for the client to discover if this configuration was actually used, or which contribution to a global configuration was used, to satisfy the request.
