Hi,
One of the changes in mkiv font handling is that from now on we have
mode=auto as default (beware, this is one of those mkiv only options and
not supported in the generic variant).
I don't know how well it works in practice but it does work out ok for
cases like:
\starttext
\startTEXpage
\definedfont[Serif*default at 20pt]fijn\par
\definefontfeature[nlddefault][default][script=latn,language=nld]
\definedfont[Serif*nlddefault at 20pt]fijn\par
\stopTEXpage
\stoptext
Depending on the font, node mode takes more memory (and a bit more
runtime) but you can always enforce base or node mode when you are
unhappy with the automatically determined mode.
