It would be great if ConTeXt supported:
\mainlanguage
[serbian]
[script=latin | cyrillic]
as well as
\mainlanguage
[english]
[variant=american | british]
etc. This is what Polyglossia does and I find it nice.

+1. How hard would it be to implement that?

i have no clue what it means but we have already inheritance in place
since ages
so effectively we have:
\installlanguage [usenglish] [en-us]
\installlanguage [ukenglish] [en-gb]
\installlanguage [english] [en-us]
and adding
\installlanguage [brittish] [en-uk]
is no big deal
i see no advantage in adding yet another mechanism for that
with regards to script ... not sure how that relates as the language
mechanism does two things
- labels and conventions (time, date, numbering, quoting, ...)
- hyphenation control
