It is already feasible to define something this simple using the filter 
module. I don't have asymptote installed on the machine that I am 
currently working on, but here is an example that uses pandoc.

\usemodule[filter]

\defineexternalfilter
     [MARKDOWN]
     [
       filtercommand={pandoc -f markdown -t context \externalfilterinputfile\space -o \externalfilteroutputfile},
       cache=yes,
       purge=no, % Just for testing. May be removed.
     ]

\define[1]\TEST
     {\setbuffer[MARKDOWN]This is #1\endbuffer
      \processMARKDOWNbuffer[MARKDOWN]}

\starttext
\startMARKDOWN
   This is **one**
\stopMARKDOWN

\TEST{**ONE**}

\TEST{_TWO_}
\stoptext

With this method, the results are not cached. Let me know if this works 
for your needs.

Aditya
