For my own writing I was using Markdown --> Pandoc --> ConTeXt for quite a while and was happy with it, too. Recently I switched to Org-Mode as I started to use org-roam to organize my Zettelkasten and want to make use of the org-mode TODO workflow states to organize the writing process. I use org-pandoc to export from org-mode/emacs to context. I can also use ox-context but I have difficulties to customize it to my needs.
The main problem is that both org-pandoc and ox-context are developed by very few people. My lisp knowledge is very limited so I have to stick with what is there.
Having a solid pipe from the first ideas to the print pdf would be nice. For now I would say that the exports from org-mode are the weak element in the chain. But if they fail I can export to Markdown and do the last steps via Markdown --> Pandoc.
That said I have to confess that I do more sophisticated layout things like flyers in pure ConTeXt as it is much faster.
It would be very nice to have a paper / wiki / whatever ... about your workflow Markdown --> Pandoc --> ConTeXt using Org-Mode. In these cases, having "a working workflow" to start with is much better than nothing. -- luigi
