Let's Polish the math!

[Marcin Borkowski <mbork@atos.wmid.amu.edu.pl>]

Hi,

how to do this: here in Poland we have some conventions as for
typesetting math; for example, we don't use  \leq, but \leqslant; we
don't write "tan" for tangent, but "tg"; we don't write "arcsin", but
"arc\,sin"; etc.  Would it be possible to have such typographic
conventions (I could provide a more comprehensive list, of course)
enabled by \mainlanguage[pl]?  A related problem is dashes; where the
English use an em-dash without any spaces, the Polish use an en-dash
with spaces of around 0.2em (the left one "unbreakable", i.e., with
\penalty10000).  Also, we put periods after section numbers, so no "1.2
Section", but rather "1.2. Section".  What is the ConTeXt way to have
such things for different languages?

Regards
