Sorry, I should know since a few years that my jokes aren't  
understandable... ;-)

constantly quote lyrics of unknown songs...)

Would be cool!

I'm working occasionally on a songbook that contains a Russian song,  
and I'd like to print the original text in cyrillic (even if I can  
hardly read it).
I've everything in UTF-8, so it would be great if ConTeXt could  
change the font automatically or language-dependent.

I still didn't try anything with that, though, maybe it's easy - the  
base font is Century Schoolbook (because that's LilyPond's default  
font and it works well for a songbook), and if I use XeTeX/luaTeX  
with TeXGyre Schola, it should just work. (Or don't you think?)

Ok, maybe I don't even need virtual font collections...
