I know that I should refuse to answer questions without a minimal 
example ... I'm pretty sure that your students can't use the heat-wave 
excuse.

\startbuffer[example]
<something>
     <sometex>weird</sometex>
</something>
\stopbuffer

\startbuffer[weird]
     \color[red]{Looks red to me!}
\stopbuffer

\startxmlsetups xml:mysetups
     \xmlsetsetup{#1}{*}{xml:*}
\stopxmlsetups

\xmlregistersetup{xml:mysetups}

\startxmlsetups xml:something
     \blank \relax [start something] \blank
     \xmlflush{#1}
     \blank \relax [stop something] \blank
\stopxmlsetups

\startxmlsetups xml:sometex
     \pushcatcodetable
     \catcodetable\ctxcatcodes
     \getbuffer[\xmlflush{#1}]
     \popcatcodetable
\stopxmlsetups

\starttext
     \xmlprocessbuffer{main}{example}{}
\stoptext

I'll replace \processTEXbuffer by:

\unexpanded\def\processTEXbuffer
   {\dosingleempty\doprocessTEXbuffer}

\def\doprocessTEXbuffer[#1]%
   {\pushcatcodetable
    \catcodetable\ctxcatcodes
    \getbuffer[#1]%
    \popcatcodetable}

so that you can say:

\startxmlsetups xml:sometex
     \processTEXbuffer[\xmlflush{#1}]
\stopxmlsetups
