My example uses Cambria, but it’s the same with other fonts.
(BTW, in \bar{b} with Libertinus, the bar looks too high.)
I leave the font fallbacks to Hans or somebody else, but for the \bar
one can argue that the "305 glyph in Libertinus Math sits too high.
This is adjusted for in the goodie file in the next upload.
I could fix a few math accents (e.g. widebar) by limiting my
replacements to necessary glyphs, but many other problems remain (e.g.
breve, check, dot, widehat). It also affects the sizing of limiters and
e.g. underbraces.
Why do font fallbacks for non-math fonts affect math at all?

Re: [NTG-context] fallbacks
I believe it's a bug.
https://github.com/contextgarden/context/blob/d025bcdf995be6951f69fed6869048ab22491b9e/tex/context/base/mkxl/font-col.lmt#L278
the newchar[] table, which should contain all chars supported by the
fallback termes font if I'm not mistaken, turns out to have only 392 chars
within 0x20-0x30C, far away from 0x2329-0x232A.

Re: [NTG-context] fallbacks
Thank you, Pablo, but that doesn't help. I know how to use fallback
fonts. I was wondering if the check key is working as it should.

Here you have a minimal sample (which doesn‘t use "preset=range:greek"),
adding "force=yes" gets all Greek glyphs from GFS Heraklit:

Hi Thomas,
I don’t know what check does (maybe just check?), but the standard
behaviour with \definefallbackfamily is only to fall back when the
character is missing from the main font.
To force all characters from the range in the fallback font, "force=yes"
is required.
Here you have a minimal sample (which doesn‘t use "preset=range:greek"),
adding "force=yes" gets all Greek glyphs from GFS Heraklit:
\definefallbackfamily [presentation] [serif] [GFSHeraklit]
[range={greekandcoptic, greekextended}]
\definefontfamily [presentation] [serif] [TeXGyrePagella]
\setupbodyfont [presentation,12pt]
\starttext
Pπμᾷσδ
\stoptext
Just in case it might help,
Pablo
