InteractiveToolsContext owns the core parts of an Interactive Tools Framework implementation - the InputRouter, ToolManager, GizmoManager, TargetManager, and ContextStore. In the simplest use case, UInteractiveToolsContext is just a top-level container that will keep the various UObjects alive, and provide an easy way to access them. However in a more complex situation it may be desirable to subclass and extend the ToolsContext. For example, UEdModeInteractiveToolsContext allows a ToolsContext to live within a UEdMode.
