Hello Florian,

(I fear to update ConTeXt now that you mention it, so I won't try out
your example :) :) :)

Do you need "a umlaut" or do you need a double differential (d^a/dt^2)?

I just wanted to say that if you need ä as "a umlaut" in formulas, you
would probably want to use $\text{bär}$ rather than $\rm b\ddot ar$ in
such cases. But if there's indeed a problem, it needs to be fixed
anyway.
