orinal tex permits to set the catcodes so you need to define 'original tex'

anyhow, you can use \aligntab and \alignhash which wee introduced in 
luatex for this purpose

which reminds me that one of these days on the context dev list we 
should discuss this one

\catcode`€=\mathshiftcatcode

\starttext
     €e=mc^2€
\stoptext

for typesetting math with continental style presets.
