In my experience the font switching issue (complicated for newbies) is the only relevant negative feature in ConTeXt.
So, if I have Luatex I can forget xetex?

Hmm, with Luatex I can use system fonts like in XeTeX. Am I right?
yes, if you set up OSFONTDIR



I would like to set up OSFONTDIR, but I don't know how or where or when
to do so. I've tried setting it in my bash profile, and that seems to
have no effect. What is the correct procedure? (I'm on a Mac, if it
matters.)

we can consider setting it up automatically but that can only be done
when it's a stable location
