Hi Gerben,
I think this may do the trick:
\doiftext{\env{ml}}
{\mainlanguage[\env{ml}]}
\starttext
Document main language:
\startmodeset
[**en] {English}
[**es] {Spanish}
[**de] {German}
[**nl] {Dutch}
[**ru] {Russian}
\stopmodeset%
.
\stoptext
Of course, "--arguments=ml=nl" would be the right option to pass the
language from the command line.
AfaIk, there is not "--language" option from the command line. (This
also makes sense to me.)
Just in case it might help,
Pablo
