I don't understand the internals of LaTeX or ConTeXt well enough to know if this is a ridiculous question. I respect the ConTeXt Bib module, but BibLaTeX-Chicago offers exactly what I'm looking for. Both BibLaTeX and ConTeXt use e-TeX, and the internals of BibLaTeX appear not to be LaTeX-specific. So, would it be possible to write a ConTeXt module that bypasses Bib and provides an interface between ConTeXt bibliography commands and BibLaTeX/Biber?
