Thanks for the explanation, Wolfgang.

That makes sense.

Your example works for me. But it's still unclear what I'm doing
wrong. According to your explanation this should work:

  \definefontfamily
    [mainface]
    [rm]
    [Caecilia LT Std]
    [tf=Caecilia LT Std Roman]

However, it shows:

  selectfont > The requested font 'Caecilia LT Std' has no files for the 'tf' alternative, Latin Modern is used instead.

It appears that ConTeXt somehow can't find the font.
