39    * A ParameterProviderFactory is responsible for instantiating a ParameterProvider
40    * for a given environment. Implementations know what concrete environment they expect and what
41    * concrete type of ParameterProvider they generate. The "environment" is likely to be
42    * an HttpServletRequest, but could also be a WorkItemContext, for instance.
43    *
44    * The ParameterProviderFactory must also ensure the parameter has appropriate
45    * equals() and hashCode() methods: the parameter is used as part of a key of a
46    * blocking map to avoid generating the same image multiple times.
47    *
48    * TODO -- verify, validate, fix the following :
49    * TODO -- The type of context basically depends on the caller. In most cases, the context (C)
50    * TODO -- will be an HttpServletRequest or a Magnolia Context instance.
51    * TODO -- Since the ParameterProviderFactory is provided by
52    * TODO -- the ImageGenerator, this might means that a particular ImageGenerator is tied
53    * TODO -- to a specific context.
