I couldn't understand the initial part - "This is true for all the rest"

I think going forwards, IPAContext will be more whole-some preserving 
the context of all the frames queued to IPU3, hence  I don't want to 
introduce any per-frame member variable there, although I am not very 
much opposed to the idea.

The Algorithm prepare() and process() are documented to be run "for 
every frame", hence  I find passing the frame-number to those functions 
as a more suitable option.
