This works, of course. However it continues with sans font even
after \stopMPcode. This is better (but clumsy):
\start
\switchtobodyfont[sans]
\startMPcode
draw textext("This should be sans");
\stopMPcode
\stop
Here serif again.
The text in Metapost adapts to the text set in ConTeXt. But the font
setup should *only* be set for MetaPost, not regular text.
Does that mean, that MPenvironment is deprecated and does not work
at all?
