Some users (me, but I just discovered I'm not the only one) like to be able to switch font style/weight/size/whatever without touching the other characteristics. For example: triggering a \bf within the scope of an \it should actually call \bi, and conversely. Or, boldfacing or italicizing a Caps font (yes, I know it's a typographical horror). (BTW, no Upright Italic in ConTeXt?) -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
