/**
 * Check if an object as a boolean `stale` flag.
 *
 * Context objects e.g. for MonitoredItems may have a lifetime and a callback might be called when
 * the item is deleted. So the context objects should be able to delete itself.
 * The context object passed to the callback as a parameter but the callback has no access to the
 * container owning this context object. Each context object could carry a reference to its owning
 * container and delete itself, but this can be problematic... Instead a simple flag `stale` can be
 * set if the item is deleted and should be removed from its container, the `ContextMap`.
