In principle both should work with simpleslides module though I never
tested it with simplefonts.

ConTeXt comes with typescripts for lot of the commonly used fonts.
Earlier, you had to use
\usetypescript[dejavu]
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]
to use an existing typescript. Since a year or more now, the first line is
not needed. You can just use
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]
and context will run \usetypescript[...] if a typescript is not already
loaded.

The simpleslides module is not designed for configurability. Sorry. The
best solution is to copy the Shaded style to another file and remove the
code for the bottom bar.
Thomas and I were working on a more extensible version of simpleslides,
but haven't had the time to finish it.
