Provides a content_types plugin for Quicktabs so that they can utilize contexts.

Why would I want this module?

If you've defined views that are used in a Quicktabs set, and these views expect certain argument values that are available as ctools contexts.

For example, if you have a node_view panel variant defined that sends the node author user ID to a view inside of a Quicktabs block that is added to the page. The argument handling in Quicktabs doesn't support this mechanism, so you'd be forced to write some custom default argument handling. But by using this module, you can use the normal Panels UI to define the context tokens that are sent to the Quicktabs pane, which is then sent to the view.
