Done.

I think it should be mockable (e.g. be "Writer http.ResponseWriter").

Monitoring middleware will need to replace the writer. I think it's more
important than exposing StatusCode() and Written().

+1, I didn't notice there is no NewContext that accepts writer

IMHO, not worth it, it's lightweight object and its created only once per
request
