ummm… Vladimir gets the prize…
To try to put it all together:
All concurrently open file objects for a single stream of a single file will share an FSContext.
If two concurrently open file objects refer to different streams (including different files), they will have different FSContexts.
If two file objects are opened at different times, they may or may not have the same FSContext regardless of whether they refer to the same file.
All agreed?
Andy.

You are making ambiguous statement too. Let me try 
Same FsContext is shared among all FileObjects that represent same stream of same file on disk.

Alexei,
Not quite. FsContext is unique for every open file. It can get re-used if one file is closed, then another opened.
