I am still struggling to find a consistent use of Models.Context.

If I do Views.Open or any of the other opens with Views then then
context gets set for me (Document.Context, I believe).

But then the size of the open document is predefined to a default value
which I must then contravene with a Controllers handlers.  What this looks
like is the document flashed large then gets reset to a small (my) value.

What I want is to be able to stipulate the size of the view BEFORE it is
opened (with one of Views open procedures).

How do I do that?
