It says \latexlua, though being half a sleep, I'm pretty sure there
is no latex in luatex, a Freudian slip? :P
Sure, Taco is secretly working on latexlib.  This allows you to run
LaTeX directly in Context:
\startLaTeX
\textbf{hello}
\stopLaTeX
Oh, you underestimate the power of the dark side. Running latex inside
context is already possible using the external filter module[1].
as I said to Reinhard to a private email
it's also something that I'm thinking from a while.
The Aditya idea (that I *must* know :-) )
is to call an external process, hence
1) doesn't share state (ie fonts) and this can be a limit
No, it does. pandoc is an (incomplete) parser that converts latex to
context. So, the latex snippet is converted to context snippet and read
back.
yes, but  pandoc must be in synch with latex and context.
Maybe it's ok for pdflatex and mkii .

But seriously, if you want to read LaTeX commands, the simplest way is to
write the "converter" in TeX.
in luatex+mkiv
