we have before/after in \definestartstop so let's add left/right there 
for the inline variant

you can put this in cont-new.mkiv:

\unprotect

\unexpanded\def\syst_startstop_indeed#1%
   {\groupedcommand
      {\def\currentstartstop{#1}%
       \startstopparameter\c!commands % better: setups so that will show 
op soon
       \dostarttagged\t!construct\currentstartstop
       \usestartstopstyleandcolor\c!style\c!color
       \startstopparameter\c!left}
      {\def\currentstartstop{#1}% safeguard, nto really needed
       \startstopparameter\c!right
       \dostoptagged
       \startstopparameter\c!inbetween}}

\protect


\starttext

\definestartstop[foo][style=bold,left=(,right=)]
\definestartstop[bar][style=italic,left=(,right=)]

test \foo{test \bar{x} test} test

\stoptext
