WebApi - MessageHandlers - Pass request parameter to context

[Costas]

Each handler has a chance to examine and/or modify the request before passing it to the next handler in the chain, and to examine and/or modify the response it receives from the next handler. Typically, the last handler in the pipeline is the HttpClientHandler, which communicates directly with the network.
