As for the context, I did not mean to add it to the Checkpointed interface
but to the state backend method calls.
Other simpler solution for now would be to make the environment or the
runtimecontext accessible from the backend, so it knows which task it does the
checkpointing for. This is probably the cleanest solution for now until we
figure out the exact requirements.
Otherwise :+1: from me.
