Re: [NTG-context] slanted default (was: \dots again)

(1) not all fonts have an italic

Fonts without italics are no fonts.

hm, as far i know, an italic style originally is different font, a kind of mimicking handwriting; if they come with a regular font, i consider it a bonus;
also, your definition turns a lot of fonts into no-fonts

Yes it does. ;-) And I use lots of no-fonts myself. But if there's no emphasis style then I don't tinker my own. (In my typescripts I map e.g. italics to medium bold, if I use a family with different weights but no italics.)

(3) we seldom used \em

Do you always use \it, \bf, \sl? Where's your logical markup?

\definegroupedcommand[important]
{\important ...}

Ok, didn't thought of such. Is more logical than I'm used to... ;-)
And it shows me again that I'm not really able to use TeX/ConTeXt.

<amateurmode/> $smile;

Isn't that an empty entity? And I suppose it should be <amateurmode /> &smile;
(nit-picking again...)
