the current quotation/quote/speech handler is now replaced by the 
delimited text one although that one is not yet activated; so any 
adaptions should take place there; i added an option:

\setupdelimitedtext[quotation][method=font]

test \quotation{test} test

or:

\definedelimitedtext[whatever][quotation]

\setupdelimitedtext[whatever][method=font]

xxx \whatever{xx} xxx

When using that option, it's all up to the font ...

I'll generate a new 'current'
