i plan to update cont-en.xml with changes in mkiv (new keys and commands) but i'm unsure if it's good to mix mkii and mkiv. I think it's to make a separate definition file for mkiv which contains the extra keys for the commands (e.g. sectionsegments for \setuphead) and use the current one for mkii only.
My opinion (though at the end you may do it either way): I would put a special key to either each command or each option that would clarify "mkii only" or "mkiv only" or "both". If command is completely different, for example \usetypescript[name][ec] in mkii vs. \usetypescript[name] in mkiv one could define two commands and label one as "mkii only" and the second one as "mkiv only".
there is already something like that but not applied yet to all commands
There might be also another thing worth keeping in mind. Some commands may be valid, but useless in mkiv. It might make sense to label those as such.
Even though the fact that "mkii is frozen" might be true, most of valid options are still missing in those xml files.
