Inspired by Alexander Perlis' macros in 
http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/Articles/tb22-4/tb72perlS.pdf
can we have the math equivalent of llap etc. in ConTeXt.

Ideally, \llap etc. should be modified so that they work in math mode 
also (just like \smash and \phantom). If not, we can have the 
following simple definitions:

\def\mathclap{\mathpalette\domathclap}
\def\domathclap#1#2{\clap{$\m@th#1#2$}}

\def\mathllap{\mathpalette\domathllap}
\def\domathllap#1#2{\llap{$\m@th#1#2$}}

\def\mathrlap{\mathpalette\domathrlap}
\def\domathrlap#1#2{\rlap{$\m@th#1#2$}}


Usage:
\startformula
A = \sum_{\mathclap{1 \le i \le N}} a_i
\stopformula
