Explicit `contextTypes` required?

[leebenson]

Unless contextTypes is set manually on the target component, the flux prop is missing and no context is sent to listenTo() or getProps.

As a workaround, I currently have this middleware:

import React from 'react';
import { connect } from 'alt-react';

module.exports = function (Ele, opt) {
  Ele.contextTypes = {
    flux: React.PropTypes.object
  };
  return connect(Ele, opt);
};

It would be good if connect automatically added contextTypes to the target element if it doesn't already exist, or extends it with flux if it does.

Sure this sounds reasonable to me.

@goatslacker - cool man. PS Love the ninja suit!

What suit? It's a uniform.

you know what, I realised my faux pas as soon as I hit send. Of course it's a uniform. My bad!
