them more something like ...

\def\tabulateuse#1{\dorecurse{\numexpr2*#1-1\relax}{\span\omit}}

\appendtoks
     \let\use\tabulateuse
     \defineTABLEshorthands
\to \everytabulate

\starttext

\starttabulate[|l|Br|l|l|]
\NC a \NC b \NC c \NC d \NR
\NC 1 \NC 2 \TWO  \NC 4 \NR
\stoptabulate

i have no problem with adding such a feature, but you have to write down 
a 'limited use' entry in the wiki then since it will not work with p entries

has to be tested anyway
