With natural tables I can define a color, tell the table to have to
use color backgrounds and turn the frame off and get every odd row in
all my tables will have that color for the background.

========== Example ============================================================
\definecolor[grayback][r=.8,g=.8,b=.8]
\setupTABLE[background=color,frame=off]
\setupTABLE[row][odd][backgroundcolor=grayback]
========== End of Example =====================================================

Can I get this same effect with extreme tables?

My first try with extreme tables looked like this:

========== Example ============================================================
\definecolor[tablebackground][r=.8,g=.8,b=.8]
\setupxtable[background=color,frame=off]
\setupxtable[row][odd][backgroundcolor=tablebackground]
========== End of Example =====================================================

That didn't seem to have any effect.

Is there a way to have every odd row of every table in my document
have color background?

\startuseMPgraphic{xtablerow}
    fill OverlayBox withcolor "gray";
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay
  [xtablerow]
  [\ifodd\currentxtablerow
     \useMPgraphic{xtablerow}%
   \fi]

\starttext

\startxtable[frame=off,background=xtablerow]
\dorecurse{20}
  {\startxrow
     \startxcell Column 1 \stopxcell
     \startxcell Column 2 \stopxcell
   \stopxrow}
\stopxtable

\stoptext
