This is controlled by the bst files and cannot be corrected elsewhere.

In each of the four bst files in bibtex/bst/context, there are two
calls to the do.t.out function:

   FUNCTION {format.t.title}
   { "" "\title" title do.t.out
     "" "\isbn" isbn do.out
   }

   FUNCTION {format.arttitle}
   { "" "\arttitle" title do.t.out }

These calls have to be replaced by do.out:

   FUNCTION {format.t.title}
   { "" "\title" title do.out
     "" "\isbn" isbn do.out
   }

   FUNCTION {format.arttitle}
   { "" "\arttitle" title do.out }

You will have to do that in a local copy, as I am a hesitant to change
this in the distribution (it would introduce compatibility problems
in already existing documents).

Best wishes,
