we can try to ignore lines, but even then, it's better to do:
\usetypescript[gentium]
\setupbodyfont[gentium]
\setupbodyfont[whatever]
\starttext
Hello {\switchtobodyfont[gentium] World ... }
this is because \switchtobodyfont is doing a lot and is supposed to be
used grouped, so performance wise it's better first to trigger it once
