There seems something very much amiss with \halign in later ConTeXt versions.
This typesets fine in PlainTeX and is an example taken from a textbook.

I see, it is either the nuisance of having to type \ etc. in the text, or the
nuisance of having to wrap everything like \halign in \unprotect..\protect and
then resorting to \ again.
At least there is nothing amiss with \halign itself, which is reassuring.
However, I do not feel secure with
There seems to be more to it:
This works:
\unprotect\halign{\hfil\it#\hfil\hfil#\hfil#\hfil#\hfil\cr
ABCD\cr ABB\cr}\protect
But these generate a missing } after the \halign:
\unprotect\framed{\halign{\hfil\it#\hfil\hfil#\hfil#\hfil#\hfil\cr
ABCD\cr ABB\cr}}\protect

\framed can use a \hbox or a \vbox to place the content, by default it uses a
\hbox
but when you set the correct value for the align key it uses a \vbox.
