hang error

Why this: normal plain TeX macro \hang giving an Undefined control sequence error in ConTeXt?
This MWE shows it:
\starttext
\hang
\stoptext

I would not expect basic plain macro's to crash. If it is intended behaviour I do not think that is the road to go, because this invalidates older documents. But maybe it is just an error in the distribution.
