I only know a little bit about microtype (hanging/handling) in ConTeXt.
This is the code that I start from:

\usetypescript[serif]     [hanging] [normal] %see type-exa
\usetypescript[postscript][texnansi]
\setupalign   [hanging]
\setupbodyfont[postscript]

\setuplayout[width=5in]
\showframe
\starttext
\input tufte
\it\input tufte
\stoptext


(The reason why it's easier to do an example with Times rather than Latin
Modern is because the handling handler needs to insert the hanging code,
which is a little bit more involved with the pre-loaded, default font.)

I'm not sure how the italic protrusion code works, but I think it is
capable of handling your 'f's in the way you want.
