Hi!

We’ve been working on adding LuaMetaTeX and ConTeXt standalone support for the 
Markdown package (https://github.com/Witiko/markdown/pull/557) and encountered 
an interesting issue.

The package loads quite a huge library — `expl3-code.tex` from `l3kernel` 
package which eats a lot of time during compilation.

What would be a good way to mitigate this? Is there a way to pre-load the 
library before compilation? Perhaps by making a custom ConTeXt format and 
making it with `context --make`?

Unfortunately, I haven’t found a documentation on how to make your own custom 
formats, hence this question.

Thank you in advance!

P.S. What is the process of adding thrid-party modules in the default list of 
ConTeXt distribution (https://modules.contextgarden.net/)? I think Markdown 
package might proof very useful for a lot of folks and worth considering to be 
added in the list. What do you think?

P.P.S. Sorry for posting in both lists, not sure which is more appropriate.
