Thank you.

Is it possible to change the name of the resulting PDF file based on the language and a mode?

So that with a command

	context language=fr mode=simple file.tex

the result is in

	file-simple-fr.pdf

and with 

	context language=ru mode=none file.tex (or no mode given)

the result is

	file-ru.pdf

Another method is to map the file names of the images to symbolic names and use only the symbolic names in your document.
