Hold on. I feel like the premise running through all this discussion is that there is one single LLM context at play when "using an LLM to interrogate a database of user-generated tickets". But that's not true at all; sophisticated agents use many cooperating contexts. A context is literally just an array of strings! The code that connects those contexts, which is not at all stochastic (it's just normal code), enforces invariants.
This isn't any different from how this would work in a web app. You could get a lot done quickly just by shoving user data into an eval(). Most of the time, that's fine! But since about 2003, nobody would ever do that.
To me, this attack is pretty close to self-XSS in the hierarchy of insidiousness.
