Well, it is possible by abusing the basal structures ONE and SIX. As
an example for a 120 degree angle using SIX see the sample some messages
before in this thread.
However, you are right, there are things which are not present, such as
certain bonds etc.

Without diagonal arrows you could use the flow charts module.

Thanks -- while it looks really nice, I do need diagonal arrows.
However, after some experimenting, I catually managed to get DCpic to 
work. It is just a plain TeX file,
I was only scared by the .sty name.

If somebody else runs into the same problem, here is a short example, 
for reference. You will need dcpic.sty in  your path first. Then
one can create diagrams as follows:

\usemodule[pictexwd]
\input dcpic.sty
\starttext
\begindc{\commdiag}
\obj(1,2){$V_i$}
\obj(3,1){$V'$}
\obj(3,3){$V$}
\mor{$V_i$}{$V$}{$f_i$}
\mor{$V_i$}{$V'$}{$f_i'$}[-1,0]
\mor{$V$}{$V'$}{$f$}
\enddc
\stoptext

Why not use MetaPost?  With all of ConTeXt's features for doing in-document 
MetaPost code, this would be the perfect solution for your problem.  Have a 
look at Hans's MetaFUN manual for a good starting point on using it.

Also, I believe the original MetaPost manual has some examples of figures 
very much like the ones that you want to draw.
