How about a little appetizer from mkiv.

\definefontfeature[chinese][analyze=yes,language=dflt,mode=node,script=hani]

\starttypescript[sans][arial]
\definefontsynonym[Sans][Arial][features=chinese]
\stoptypescript

\starttypescript[sans][arial]
\definefontsynonym[Arial][file:ARIALUNI][features=default]
\stoptypescript

\definetypeface[arial][ss][sans][arial][default]

\setupbodyfont[arial,ss]

% alternative to the typescript solution
%\definefont[Normal][ARIALUNI*chinese at 12pt][line=16pt]

\starttext

write your chinese text here

\stoptext

There will be no longer any big difference in defining fonts for latin or
any
other language. A few things are to achive than with the current code from
the
chinese module like opening and closing braces in vertical mode.
