There are some restrictions in the ConTeXt license, so it is probably
better to require that someone (presumably one who has read the
documentation!) has to explicitly enable ConTeXt.

This has been discussed before. A central problem is that the current
version is not GPL'd, and many teTeX users do need (in fact, help to
create) the new features. On some systems (SGI) DPS is provided, so
not everyone needs gs.

examine the texmf.cnf file you may find that it supports

shifting remains useful in situations where you want to import a

for a new TeX to make it easy to use them.
The other consideration is whether it is easier to make europs just work

It is far from easy to diagnose problems with fonts. Add to that the
need to support many different encodings and the fact that many programs
don't tell the truth about which fonts are actually being used.
