There are two reasons why this is not done (yet?):
1. The microtypography of such textual labels is not the same in all
languages/countries: at least some require a change in the actual
ordering (prefix vs. postfix labels)
2. (and this is more important) Laziness from me. Not a good reason,
I know, but that's how it is.
This is a BAD new. I think it's important. It could be marked the difference
(in the bibliographyc
world) about ConTeXt and other systems. Unfortonately I have not enough
knowledge for doing that so
I depend of you ;-) Please, reconsider it. I think it will be a day of work for
you (at least with
preliminary version - not right-to-left languages).
In a long time, please put in your todo list the implementation of babelbib
[http://texcatalogue.sarovar.org/entries/babelbib.html] in ConTeXt
Thanks a lot,
Xan.
Best wishes,
Taco
