Have access to request.app in Joi validation context

[cur3n4]

Are you sure this is an issue with hapi or are you just looking for some help?

Yes.

What are you trying to achieve or the steps to reproduce?

Sometimes during Joi validation on a route, it is useful to have access to request.app to check some values. Currently the Joi validation context contains request headers, params, query, payload, and auth.

What did you expect?

I would expect to be able to access request.app in Joi, same as the other request attributes

Context

• node version:7.2.1
• hapi version:13.2.1
• os:MacOS

Let me know if this change makes sense to you and I can try to do a PR.

I think only a few properties are available since they are being copied into the context object.
So my only concern would be perf I think but if you send a massive payload you have the same issue I think.

I know for a fact it's not exposed, I don't know if @hueniverse wants to, sorry can't help you on this one.
