Gerben,
With a default install of Context, I don't believe write18 is enabled nor run time development of Metapost graphics. Do you do any of that?
If a change would require a non-secure standard config, I will not do it. Nor will I if there is a reasonable run-time (not configure time) workaround (e.g. adding -shell-escape to tex can be done runtime and is thus a better security strategy than turning it on by default). If it is possible to offer some configuration options to the user, I will investigate.
Gerben, David, I think the technique I documented here: http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Texmf.cnf ...is probably a good compromise for one or the other of you. It doesn't compromise the system as a whole, but it does compromise/add-feature for ConTeXt. adam -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
