I see that someone has already submitted an issue for this.
In the meantime it is safe to save and restore to flow context, provided that you can be sure that you will not pass in another message before the previous one has been fully actioned and the values restored to the message. Otherwise the second message will overwrite the context values before they have been picked up.
If you can't guarantee that then you can use this flow to make sure only one message at a time passes through the save - jwt node - restore nodes.
Replace the Some 'functions to be performed' and 'Some more stuff to do' nodes with your save - action - restore nodes.
