Subject: Commands with arguments before in ConTeXt

I've read the following is not possible in TeX
\def#1\macro{blabla#1}
where arguments come before. The only partial exceptions are commands like
\atop or \over, which are in fact primitives. Is there a way to do this in
ConTeXt?
Could it be a feature request for LuaMetaTeX? I've seen Hans experimenting
a lot with new primitives and new possibilities for arguments, like #0 and
co., so I ask in case it's not too nonsensical to propose it. Regards
Jairo :)
