This is only my guess, but if you add an space, you may be on your own.
In french, you always add the space. If you don't, the text looks odd.
So ConTeXt should not let us on our own in this case 😉
Romain,
I was wrong. The following sample shows different results with LuaTeX
and LMTX (current latest from 2025.09.25 18:46):
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
\starttext
\startTEXpage[offset=5mm, pagestate=start, width=6em]
\hsize\zeropoint
Voil�: \| Voil� : \|
Voil�? \| Voil� ? \|
Voil�! \| Voil� ! \|
Voil�; \| Voil� ; \|
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
BTW, is "¿" even used in French? (I thought it was only in Spanish and
some versions of Galician.)
I guess the word should be Voilà.
