Or let context throw an error in case a font/char is missing:

  %% alternative:
  %% context --errors='*' 
  \enabledirectives [logs.errors=*]

  %% missing font
  \definefontfamily [foo] [serif] [no font here really]
  \setupbodyfont [foo]

  \starttext
%% missing characters
풜
  \stoptext

“Best” is subjective. What might be a good way for me might not be
your preferred way.

LuaMetaTex doesn't care at all *how* you input the characters into
your text editor. The characters end up in the tex file and that's
what's processed by context.

  \starttext
Ωµ±åö←§…
  \stoptext

Methods:

  - custom keyboard layout (my preferred way)
  - compose key
  - symbol input tables (provided by your OS)
  - copy-pasting symbols from somewhere else
  - …

You need to select a font containing the characters you need. Or set
up a fallback for a certain range:
