Have you decided about treating ; the same as , when enabled in \setupmathematics? Not really (I was away for a while anyway).
The problem with these , ; things is that they can occur with and without intentional spacing, so we then probably have to be able to set , and ; independently (there is also a cultural issue: . vs ,).
It's no big deal to implement it, more how to interface it,

I have to admit that I have never seen semi-colon being used as a digit separator. Alan, do you need this for a one off project or is this something that is commonly used in some country/domain specific typographic tradition? Aditya
