The httpctx package provides a convenient way to handle HTTP requests using "context-aware" handler functions. Context-aware handlers are different from the standard http.Handler in two important ways:

1. They accept an additional parameter of the (almost) standard type context.Context (golang.org/x/net/context); and
2. They return an error result.

The httpctx package also implements a simple middleware chaining mechanism. The idea for this comes from Justinas Stankevičius and his alice package. (https://github.com/justinas/alice).
