  I use oldstyle digits with a typescript using variants such as
  \Var[osf] to get oldstyle digits. How do I get _all_ digits,
  including the page number in oldstyle?
 
  \setuppagenumbering[style={\Var[osf]}] would be a solution, but it
  looks more like a hack - I'd like to have a complete setup.

 I guess you refer to the thread started from Alan? (I am currently
 offline.) My post is actually an attempt to use a slightly different
 approach, so I am perfectly aware of that thread.

 My point is, there should be a way to say 'before processing this
 document, switch to osf with \Var[osf] or something equivalent'. I
 don't want to deal with typescripts just for that. I have created a
 typescript already that includes oldstyle figures. IMO it should be
 possible to say \Var[something] for the whole document.

The only method I know is the one I show in my former message with
the termes-os typescipts. It would be nice to have something built-in
to choose small caps, old style and tabular figures with \setupbodyfont
and \switchtobodyfont like you can do with sans, mono ... fonts.

For example:
\setupbodyfont[fontname] for lining figures
\setupbodyfont[fontname,os] for oldstyle figures
...
