Snmpd not answering if an unknown context is used in query from client

Hello everybody,

I'm using NET-SNMP 5.7.3 with SSL support enabled and I can properly
configure the daemon to run SNMPV3 with authNoPriv users.
At run time my subagent will register OIDs with a configurable context name.
Everything is working perfectly.

However I can see a minor but unexpected behavior when querying the daemon
from a client with a context unknown to the daemon: the daemon is not
answering at all and I must wait for the client side timeout to expire.

Is this behavior expected from your side or should I open a bug? I was
instead waiting for a reply like "SNMP_NOSUCHOBJECT" or similar...

I posted the same request also on net-snmp-users here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/mailman/message/36932085/

Thanks
