But my guess is that the argument goes into the opposite way. I past (and still in MKII) one *had to* set up fonts twice - once for the main document and once for MetaPost since MetaPost did its own processing of labels and MetaPost didn't see the ConTeXt font setups. So it was "difficult" to convince MetaPost to use the same font.
I agree, it's a big step forward towards usability and consistency to have MetaPost automatically inherit ConTeXts settings. However, it went out-of-control now.
A better alternative would to define
\setupMPtext [ style=..., color=..., setups=..., ]
that can be used to set the style for metapost text.
