Not at the moment, but I will add something in a future version. One
problem
with \cite that I am interested in hearing people's opinion about: the
currently is a 'latex compatibility' option available as well.
\cite{..} is accepted as meaning the same as \cite[..]. It is in there
because existing databases use this syntax when refering to other items
in the database. But: it is very latexy and not in sync with the context
rule that typeset arguments use {} and setup arguments use [].
So, question: to remove or not to remove? How many people share bibtex
databases between latex en context? (removal makes it easier to implement
the 'extra info').

Noted. this wil be fixed somewhere before eurotex. Hans? the first one is
a conflict with the multi-lingual interface: author is defined already.
Could
you have a look and explain to me how to go about that?

It's probably easier at the macro level. The bst files are weird, even for
bst files ;). I will look into it and try to explain in the documentation
how it should be done.
