I don't have a strong opinion on your proposed change, but I wanted to
point out one thing:

I don't think that's completely true. I haven't tested this case, but
most things that do a Goto while you're in an AGI do set a new
context, extension and priority, it's just that you're in the agi
still so you don't execute them until the AGI completes. It's
effectively the same as using the agi commands "set extension", "set
context" and "set priority". And you can see that this has happened by
asking for the EXTEN variable and notices that it's changed.
