Hi Otared,
At the moment I don't know how one can use the fallback system with
calligraphic/script fonts. Let me explain in a few sentences what we
changed. Now we have \mathcal and \mathscr. If the font has both a
chancery alphabet and a roundhand alphabet, the goodie file is coded
so that \mathcal points to chancery and \mathscr to roundhand. This is
the case for Lucida. So, maybe you could try to do
\setupbodyfont[lucidadk] and then try \mathscr out. Other fonts that
have both variants are stixtwo and xits. The rest have only either
chancery style or roundhand style, and there you will get what it has.
About \cal I don't know.

I think the new math alignments are still work in progress. One thing
that happens will probably go unnoticed, and that is the spacing. Hans
is playing a lot with the new atoms, and right now he is playing(?)
with construction atoms, ghosts and fences. There is one new type of
alignments, called simplealignments. We can use them for example to
collect some equations with a brace (and give the collection one
number).
