Chakra words reminds me of the interesting idea for components to have their independent activation context. That page is not aware of.
In this case the component encapsulates the knowledge about specific url parameters that it needs. And can be reused on different pages without altering them. For example imagine a custom pager component that needs parameter "pageNum". I use a somewhat similar solution using @Environmental inside Mixins that stores data in request parameters.
