Hi Hans, All,

Your solution is naturaly better, but I was trying to use \topaccent to solve
the problem. 

Yet, in my test I noticed that there maybe a bug in the spacing of the Middle Dot in the 
default font of ConTeXt, as you can see using my MWE.

Depending on the font used, the result looks likes 19cat’s LaTeX example!

Of course using \topaccent causes a character spacing to the preceding character!
Here again the result is the worst for the default font of ConTeXt!

Here my test MWE!?

\mainlanguage[ca]

%\definefontfeature[default][default][compat-ligatures=yes,mode=node]

%\setupbodyfont[pagella]

\def\LdotL{\topaccent{0pt}{0.5}{0}{·}{L}L}
\def\ldotl{\topaccent{0pt}{1.2}{0}{·}{l}l}

\def\Ldot{\topaccent{0pt}{0.5}{0}{·}{L}}
\def\ldot{\topaccent{0pt}{1.2}{0}{·}{l}}

This is kind of tricky as in unicode they are not composed characters (char vs compat) so they are not dealt with in the collapser.

I've added this to the beta:

\definefontfeature[default][default][char-ligatures=yes,mode=node]
\definefontfeature[default][default][compat-ligatures=yes,mode=node]

% \setupbodyfont[cambria]
% \setupbodyfont[pagella]

\starttext

\startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
   PEL·LÍCULES pel·lícules col·legi \par
   PEĿLÍCULES  peŀlícules  coŀlegi  \par
\stopTEXpage

\stoptext

I'm not sure about the names of these pseudo features (pl01 and pl02 might make more sense or maybe xlig (extra) and plig (pseudo) ... so maybe the names will change.

(Not all fonts support this properly so it always needs checking.)
