In general, yes. But there are some issues with TiKZ [http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2013/076384.html] and in some ocasions with columns (not balanced).

Perhaps we could have a bug triage system for that?

One reason for ConTeXt is the ability of deal with XML and produce several outputs.
Separation of content and presentation is also good.

I join one person (I don't remember who) who says there could be more examples for learning people. I think an ideal think could be to have an equivalent "The not so short introduction to LaTeX".

The community is good. All posted questions have posted answers. And Hans is the boss ;-)
