It doesn't seem to add the receiver to implementations of the interface, and I can't use the receiver in default function implementations. Is there any meaning at all to a context receiver on an interface? If not, should it be a compile error?

08/07/2023, 5:27 PMYou can’t use context receivers over interfaces or object, so it is a bug that it is not marked as an error
