Next (t-type-***.tex) at the evening.
Okay, I noticed a second thing, in the [serif][cond][size] and other [size] typescripts: you define things like \tfc with the intention of "typeface-condensed". This will interfere with people who rely on the conventional interpretation of "typeface-at-size-C".
That's one of the things that make this tricky territory. I'm not satisfied with most of the solutions I find, most of the time. I'd like an orderly way of dealing with extra weights and shapes that 1) fit in the "ConTeXt Way," 2) work well with other peoples' setups 3) is rational and 4) extensible. Fontvariants were one step in that direction, but I recognise that it's not a complete solution by any means.
when i have to deal with that i just define another typeface: \definetypeface[blabla-normal] ... \definetypeface[blabla-condensed] ... \definetypeface[blabla-whatever] ...
