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?
