So far, that has been my impression as well. I need a lot of tweaks to get 
the right XML output (and I also need (multiple) PDF output). I have set a 
separate mode for XML export, and use something equivalent to

    context --mode=screen --result=s-filename filename

to get a screen version of the document,

    context --mode=handout --result=h-filename filename

to get a handout version of the document, and

    context --mode=export filename

to get an xml version.

TeX does finite precision arithematics, so infinity is not possible. But 
you can set paper width (and paper height) to \maxdimen, which is the 
maximum dimension TeX can handle.

\definepapersize[max][paperwidth=\maxdimen, paperheight=\maxdimen]
\setuppapersize[max]
