Canvas API gettting called multiple times via `get_serializer_context` #172
I noticed after #167 was merged that the Canvas API was getting called multiple times (3?) to fetch tool navigation information. This seems to be because of get_serializer_context works (I also used it twice directly).
Looks like I can circumvent this issue by using a more generic view type, viewsets.ViewSet, and passing the extra data to the serializer class via a context parameter.
