Android support library 23.4.0: android.support.v7

Question

So I updated to the latest support libraries, and got a crash I am not able to fix. My build.gradle now has these dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:gridlayout-v7:23.4.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.4.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.4.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.4.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.4.0'
    // More stuff...
}

I had a working listener that is used to catch clicks and start a new Activity. This was working fine in support libraries v. 23.1.0, but not in 23.4.0 (and 23.3.0):

public class IngredientItemOnClickListener implements OnClickListener
{
    private Ingredient mIngredient;

    public IngredientItemOnClickListener(Ingredient ingredient)
    {
        mIngredient= ingredient;
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view)
    {
        MyActivity myActivity = (MyActivity) view.getContext(); // <-- crash here
        myActivity.showIngredientActivity(mIngredient);
    }
}

This listener is simply attached to an ImageButton and thereafter the color of the Button is tinted, like this:

Ingredient ingredient = getIngredient();
myImageButton.setOnClickListener(new IngredientItemOnClickListener(ingredient));
Drawable drawable = Tinting.tint(myActivity, R.drawable.my_icon, R.color.red);
myImageButton.setImageDrawable(drawable);

where Tinting.tint() is my own tinting function:

public class Tinting
{
    @Nullable
    public static Drawable tint(Context context, int drawableId, int colorId)
    {
        final Drawable drawable = ContextCompat.getDrawable(context, drawableId);
        if (drawable != null)
        {
            final Drawable wrapped = DrawableCompat.wrap(drawable);
            drawable.mutate();
            DrawableCompat.setTint(wrapped, ContextCompat.getColor(context, colorId));
        }
        return drawable;
    }
}

Previously when I clicked the button everything worked as expected, but now the Context of the View seems to have changed to TintContextWrapper which I can find little information about. I found this issue, but the project member advises to ask here on StackOverflow, so here it is.

What have I tried?

Since the project member in the Google issue stated You will need to obtain the activity from the wrapped context. I tried casting to TintContextWrapper instead of MyActivity, which works fine, but I cannot figure out how to get MyActivity from TintContextWrapper.

So my questions are:

1. How can I get MyActivity from the TintContextWrapper?
2. Why is my ImageButton suddenly wrapped in a TintContextWrapper.
3. Should this behavior really be expected?

Definition of ImageButton in xml is simply:

<ImageButton
    android:id="@+id/my_id"
    android:src="@drawable/my_icon" />

It worked for me after updating Android Support Libraries.
