Sounds as if there is some room for interpretation ;-). But assume
that I want in my example the 0xFFFF to be interpretated as "the
current text color", so the currently blue glyphs should be black,
and if I add \color[red] before the text they should be red. Can and
if yes how this be setup? (Both in context and in generic)

no, at this moment is fixed,  but we are discussing just now how to  implement this.
