Looking at the example of @Grahame Grieve that extends the AllergyIntolerance resource found here: http://www.healthintersections.com.au/?p=2656
Is the notion of a "context" and "contextType" not required? i.e, how is it communicated that this extension is performed on the AllergyIntolerance resource.

Yes, that example is missing context and contextType which should be required in that case. @Grahame Grieve - are you able to correct the blog post?

Thanks @Lloyd McKenzie . You mentioned that in this case it is required - I am under the impression that a context and contextType will be required in all extension cases. Can you please clarify. Thanks

If a StructureDefinition is defining an extension, then yes, I believe context and contexttype is required. In theory you might profile the Extension data type for general use and wouldn't be creating an extension and in that case, I guess context/contextType could be omitted.
