I do not make that assumption in t-vim. Currently there is no way to 
specify the output directory to mtxrun --ifchanged. So, the only way that 
I can implement this feature is to either manually copy the input file, or 
manually copy the md5 file. I do not think that either of these options is 
worth the trouble.

I am not sure what you want. Do you want

context --purge filename

to remove all the temp files that t-vim creates, or do you want

context --purgeall

to delete all the files created by t-vim that reside in the current 
directory?
