Just an idea (I know nothing about Asian scripts and don't need those features myself):
Would it perhaps possible to hook that font switch into the language mechanism? Like if I change the language between latin-script languages with {\de Deutsch} and get different typography, e.g. other quotation marks. Perhaps it would be a good solution to use something like: \setuplanguage[en]{fontfamily=MySerif} \setuplanguage[cn]{fontfamily=Songti} \mainlanguage[cn] \starttext 我用英文进行{\en Hello World}测试。 \stoptext At least that looks logical to me...
