Is there a way to remove the thinspace after a semicolon when it is
followed by a number?
It does not seem to be covered by the autopunctuation key in
\setupmathematics.

For a one-off solution, $1{;}2$ should work.

Do we need support for this? That is: treat ; the same as , when enabled?

Hi, Hans—

Have you decided about treating ; the same as , when enabled in
\setupmathematics?

Alan

Not really (I was away for a while anyway).

The problem with these , ; things is that they can occur with and 
without intentional spacing, so we then probably have to be able to set 
, and ; independently (there is also a cultural issue: . vs ,).

It's no big deal to implement it, more how to interface it,

(and our master of math Aditya has to agree)

Hans

I have to admit that I have never seen semi-colon being used as a digit 
separator.

Alan, do you need this for a one off project or is this something that is 
commonly used in some country/domain specific typographic tradition?

Aditya
