I don't think that these are needed in math. We can simply delete lines
443-445 from char-def:
{
class="punctuation",
name="textperiod",
},
and add
contextname="textperiod",
The case with , (comma) is more tricky. Normally, in plain TeX comma is
defined as punctuation. But since comma is used as a separator in Europe,
ConTeXt deos something smart based on the setting of autopunction. I don't
completely understand how that works.
If autopunction is ignored, then we simply need to map , to punctuation. I
think that the definition of "mathcomma" can also be deleted. Thus, we can
simply delete lines 408 onwards:
mathspec={
{
class="punctuation",
name="textcomma",
},
{
class="ord",
name="mathcomma",
},
},
