OK. However, this doesn't seem to scale properly within the same font
… try the following:
---
\edef\defaultrulethickness{\the\fontdimen8\textfont3}
\starttext
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet \defaultrulethickness
\startformula
\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}
\stopformula
\setupbodyfont[32pt]
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet \defaultrulethickness
\startformula
\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}
\stopformula
\stoptext
---
So, your font parameter always returns the same value but clearly the
fraction bar is scaled correctly … something else must be happening
behind the curtain. If only I knew what it were ;-)
