I do not completely understand what you want. Do the following give the

Sorry;).
\starttext

\NC 3x + 2y \MC{} = 5 \NR

\NC 3x + 2y \NC{} = 5 \NR
\stopmatrix
\stopformula
\stoptext
Both work just fine, but with distance=0pt instead. Thanks! There is
only a minor problem with the former one: it's somehow shifted to the
left compared with the latter (both in MkII and MkIV). I have no idea
why.
mathcases has a numberdistance key, which adds some width at the end of
each row. You can set numberdistance to zero.
The {} after the alignment \NC is useful if the next symbol is something
that can be a uniary or binary symbol (eg, + or -). The {} tells tex to
treat is as a binary symbol.
Of course - the {} is an "ord" atom for TeX, AFAIR.
If you frequently need something like this, you can use
definemathcases/definemathmatrix to define a new environment with
appropriate parameters.
Yes; however, I'd still have to use the {} after the \NC...
Yes. You can define something like \OC (ord column) to be \NC{}.

I tried and it works for the most part in the simple document that I have. The parantheses, however, are not typeset correctly.

[NTG-context] Indentation in itemize
Hello Folks, Is there a way to have the first level of items indented. The second and subsequent levels are indented by default, but how does one achieve indentation of the first level. I looked at the options in the Context manual and I see that the default value of indentnext is yes. However, I think that applies second level onwards.

Thanks Mojca. Appreciate your response, though as you said I do not really
understand what I have to do, or if I could do anything. But a few things,
(1) Regarding the visual examples, I could post the PDF file generated with
Latex and Context. Is there a way to do that on this list? I noticed another
difference, which is that the line spacing is slightly more in the Context
document (compared to that compiled with Latex). In latex I chose
\singlespacing. In Context, I did not change the default spacing. Is the default
spacing different than singlespacing?
(2) I was going to ask about the math support. You mentioned that it would have
to be added to the typescript. How difficult is that? Does anyone know the
commands that can be used for adding such support.
Thanks.
p.s. - BTW thanks very very much to the creators of Context for presenting us
with this wonderful tool. I hope I can use it more and more for my work to
create beautiful document.

You are right that some things need to be fixed in ConTeXt - if
nothing else, the map file could be removed from type-one and
type.map. (Do not bother if you don't understand what I have written -
it's targeted to ConTeXt gurus. Any opinions?)
The file is missing, but all the needed definitions are inside
ec-base.map (I guess, I don't find ec-bitstrea-charter.map anywhere in
order to compare):
bchb8t CharterBT-Bold s * [0.96] mdbchr8t
}{}
...
/usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/fonts/tfm/mathdesign/mdbch/mdbchr8t.tfm
I suspect that one might need to fix or improve typescripts. Do you
have some visual examples to show the differences? It would be
interesting to compare the differences between bchr8t and mdbchr8t and
change typescripts if needed.
Moreover, math support would have to be added to typescripts - it
could be based on mathdesign.
