But even your solution doesn't work here. Did you try it in the
example project file?
\startenvironment [*]
\startsetups [itemgroup:en]
    \setupitemgroup [itemize] [i]
\stopsetups
\startsetups [itemgroup:sv]
    \setupitemgroup [itemize] [a]
\stopsetups
\setuplanguage
    [en]
    [setups=itemgroup:en]
\setuplanguage
    [sv]
    [setups=itemgroup:sv]
\appendtoks
\doifdocumentvariable{language}{\mainlanguage[\documentvariable{language}]}
\to \everysetupdocument
\stopenvironment
That works, thanks.
One more question: I used to use modes, since I could just
\startmode[*en]
     …
   \stopmode
any number of times. There are many language dependent settings in
the environment files.
With named setups I need to specify a name for each occurrence and
gather them at the end. This is not as clean. Is it possible e.g. to
add something to an already existing setup instead of creating a new
one every time?
No, this is only possible with a token list.


\startenvironment [*]

\newtoks\EnglishSettings
\newtoks\SwedishSettings

\appendtoks
   \setupitemgroup [itemize] [i]
\to \EnglishSettings

\appendtoks
   \setupitemgroup [itemize] [a]
\to \SwedishSettings

% the order of the following settings is important because you have
% to set the language before you can make the language dependant
% mode setting

\appendtoks
\doifdocumentvariable{language}{\mainlanguage[\documentvariable{language}]}
\to \everysetupdocument

\appendtoks
   \startmodeset
     [**en] {\flushtoks\EnglishSettings}
     [**sv] {\flushtoks\SwedishSettings}
   \stopmodeset
\to \everysetupdocument

\stopenvironment
