I thought \l does work, why \L does not.
To type \L is faster than changing the keyboard language when I write
in German normally.
try
\def\L{\char"0141}
but I have no real knowledge about ConTeXt ...

On the Mac, if you are using an 'English' keyboard, you can hold down any letter
for half a second or so and see a popup selection of alternate accented versions of
that letter. Not all text editors / word processors support it but TeXShop does. No
need for cut & paste templates.
