Hi Sanjoy,
I think that this a font related problem since in Plain TeX and mkii the following
$${\rm P}(H\, | \, E)$$
gives the same result as in mkiv when using the default LM fonts, and the top (resp. the bottom) of the bar | is aligned with the top (resp. the bottom) of the parentheses, while in Palatino (Pagella) this does not seem to be the case.
Best regards: OK

Here's another math symbol that I think is too low: the vertical bar in Palatino/Pagella. Here's an almost-minimal example. I've left in the surrounding text, to show how it's used (in probability, as P(H|E)).
I think the bottom of the bar is correct, but the tip of the bar doesn't reach to the top of the H or E.
\setupbodyfont[palatino] \starttext \placeformula\startformula \text{P}( H\,|\, E ) \stopformula \stoptext
Again, I don't think it's a ConTeXt problem, but rather a Pagella problem. But is there a recommended ConTeXt workaround? Maybe a metafun symbol?
