Well the ae trick isnot really done by LaTeX, but by creating a virtual
font AE
(T1 encoded).
AE styles does two things:
a) Using the virtual font [ae.sty]
b) (extended version) using EC for characters which are not in CM
(this results in bitmaps in the PS/PDF files if you haven't bought
the EC Type 1 fonts) [aecompl.sty]
I think this hasn't be done yet, but (a) seems "rather" trival.
Being not an expert on fonts in ConTeXt this should work:
\definefontsynonym [ComputerModern] [aer10] [encoding=ec]
The problem here is: This doesn't honour the fontsize!
(b) seems might be a little bit more complicated since you need to
support 13 extra characters.
(Hans: looking at enco-ec.tex I miss:
\def\guillemotleft{\@ae@compl{19}}
\def\guillemotright{\@ae@compl{20}}
\def\guilsinglleft{\@ae@compl{14}}
\def\guilsinglright{\@ae@compl{15}}
\def\DJ{\@ae@compl{208}}
\def\dj{\@ae@compl{158}}
\def\DH{\@ae@compl{208}}
\def\dh{\@ae@compl{240}}
\def\@perthousandzero{\@ae@compl{24}} % used in: \%\@perthousandzero
