As Hans said, layout changes/definition is that easy with ConTeXt,
that we don't really need such unflexible stuff like LaTeX classes.
You get the whole capabilities of the typearea package that is
KoMa based on with ConTeXt, and the settings are easier.

I agree, that some sample layouts would be nice, especially for
beginners.
I'd provide my book layout, but I think, it's that specialized
(and not really perfect), that nobody has a use of it.
Better are layout suggestions as you can read in every book on
that subject and even my "Formelsammlung für Drucktechniker":

(source not yet transferred from LaTeX to ConTeXt)
