// This middleware is a bit of a dirty workaround to the fact that a http.Request's context
// does not allow to pass values from an inner to an outer middleware. Calling WithContext() on a
// request shallow-copies the whole request itself and therefore, in a chain of handler1(handler2()),
// handler 1 will not have access to values handler 2 writes to its context. In addition, Context.WithValue
// returns a new context with the old context as a parent.
//
// As a concrete example, SentryMiddleware as well as LoggingMiddleware should be quite the outer layers,
// while AuthenticationMiddleware is on the very inside of the chain. However, we still want sentry or the
// logger to have access to the user object populated by the auth. middleware, if present.
//
// This middleware shall be included as the outermost layers and it injects a stateful container that does
// nothing but conditionally hold a reference to an authenticated user object.
//
