That might work, though I cringe how bad an OO practice it is to define something as the concrete class when the interface would suffice. Not that my opinion on OO practices really matter.
I sitll think that if an interface is not applicable for certain operations, like the Application Context cannot be used everywhere, it should have been a base interface just containing the usable operations. I have the same issue, BTW, with some of the built-in Collection classes. I have, at least, half dozen times, encountered issue where I tried to modify a collection returned by Collections.singletonList() and got an UnsupportedOperationException thrown in my face.
