I'll add support for:
\starttext
\hsize6cm
\pi\ =
\hyphenateddigits[\unknown]{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}
\blank
\pi\ =
\hyphenateddigits{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}
\blank
x $\pi =
\hyphenateddigits[\unknown]{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}$
\blank
x $\pi =
\hyphenateddigits{3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105}$
\blank
\stoptext
