I am thinking of incoprorating a "nath like" frac in ConTeXt. So, we can 
have

\definemathfraction[frac][style=...]

where style can take values

default: the current frac implementation
auto:    the nath like implementation
displaystyle: the current dfrac implementation
textstyle: the current tfrac implementation
scriptstyle/scriptscriptstyle: (not sure when they would be needed)

I need to check what is the difference between mathfracmode=0 and 5.

We can also interface to vulgar fractions.

Aditya
