I'm not really sure. Perhaps "C-c . c" (for context). 

The other thing that would probably be tmm. tmm-prompt in particular
would appear to do the right thing.

tmm-prompt is a compiled Lisp function in `tmm'.
(tmm-prompt MENU &optional IN-POPUP DEFAULT-ITEM)

Text-mode emulation of calling the bindings in keymap.
Creates a text-mode menu of possible choices.  You can access the elements
in the menu in two ways:
   *)  via history mechanism from minibuffer;
   *)  Or via completion-buffer that is automatically shown.
The last alternative is currently a hack, you cannot use mouse reliably.

MENU is like the MENU argument to `x-popup-menu': either a
keymap or an alist of alists.
DEFAULT-ITEM, if non-nil, specifies an initial default choice.
Its value should be an event that has a binding in MENU.
