And Danushka's proposal includes internal mutexes as well. i.e. when we 
set/get some property to conf_ctx, only one thread can set/get which is 
very useful. If we get base context and then set the property, we have 
to have an external mutex and manage them, which is always a problem. I 
am +1 to add the methods as Danushka suggested.
