in LaTeX this is implemented using some tricks (language support)
from the 'babel' package. Thus, this has _nothing_  to do with fonts
and their encoding. It is neither a remapping using virtual fonts
nor a reencoding of fonts. It _is_ transliteration. Therefore, it has to
be implemented in ConTeXt.

it's already done in the tfm and vf files
