I've wanted to experiment with that but as far as I can tell it has previously required too much (for me) font manipulation outside of tex. -Bill It is true that generating extended font metrics (e.g. cmr10+5.tfm) was a bit deterrent thing for pdfTeX users. It was the reason that Thanh enabled (some months ago) use hz WITHOUT a need of generating extended metrics. But there was some problems with this pdftex version so it coused some delay. Now I believe it will be reflected in ConTeXt support. (I do not know what Hans thinks by "and more" but I reckon he means some code clean up).

[NTG-context] a problem with \defineprotrudefactor

Invoking a typescript that uses \defineprotrudefactor will cause the job to stop; I don't see any error messages. When the problem line is commented out the job completes.
