Hmm, it works for Persian because this uses less diacritics than Arabic.
The following fails with LMTX:

\definefontfamily[main][serif][notonaskharabic][features=arabic]

\setupdirections[bidi=global,method=one]

\setupbodyfont[main]

\starttext

\obeylines

\stoptext

Hi, Hans. Could you please check this out? It works for MKIV, but in LMTX
vowels are misplaced. Thank you in advance.
