actually, \omcirkeld has been part of context for years already -)
For MP lovers, i add an alternative:
\startreusableMPgraphic{omcirkeld}
draw fullcircle xyscaled (OverlayWidth,OverlayHeight)
withpen pencircle scaled OverlayLineWidth
withcolor OverlayLineColor ;
\stopreusableMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[omcirkeld][\reuseMPgraphic{omcirkeld}]
\defineframedtext
[omcirkeld]
[frame=off,
background=omcirkeld,
width=fit,
offset=1ex]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\omcirkeld [framecolor=green] {Frans}
