Comment (by aaugustin):

 [73317883] changed `render_to_response` so it wouldn't rewrap a `Context`
 inadvertently passed in the `dictionary` argument in another `Context`.
 That's the opposite of the route taken by first patch above and I'm
 convinced it's a better approach given how widespread `render_to_response`
 is and how easy forgetting `context_instance=` is.

 The second patch still warrants consideration. I had a look and I don't
 think the code inside `if isinstance(_dict, BaseContext)` is correct: it
 adds values such as `autoescape` and `current_app` to the context when
 they're intended to be attributes of the context object.
