express-streamline v0.5: global context

[Aseem Kishore]

Hi folks,

Just published express-streamline 0.5.0, which adds support for Streamline's smart global context:

https://github.com/aseemk/express-streamline

Specifically, it resets it on every request now (just like streamline-streams, but we don't use that, for instance), so you can safely modify the global context on any/every request, without it affecting or being affected by other requests.

https://github.com/Sage/streamlinejs/blob/master/lib/globals.md

At FiftyThree, we've started to use this global context for a few things now, e.g. tracing user actions all the way through our stack, and we're loving it.

This feature was contributed by my colleague Andrew Chan (cc'ed). Thanks Andrew!

And thanks as always Bruno for the awesome foundation which we can build on!
