Hmm. I'm not using evince (could, I suppose) but I see that in the file 
you mention there is already:

['okular']    = [[okular --unique "%filename%"]], and I have already 
adapted the init.lua file in /.texadept to use okular rather than 
sumatra, with textadept.run.compile_commands.tex = 
'/home/me/bin/context/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun --autogenerate 
--script context --autopdf=okular "%f"'

So, following your logic, I should then only need to add, further on, 
pdfview.method = "okular", which I have done, but still no joy.
