[NTG-context] Replacer based on function rathen than tables

Hi, list. There's lang-rep.mkxl and lang-tra.mkxl in the distribution which
allows replacing a list of words and applying transliteration,
respectively. Both are based on tables. I want to know if there's a way to
use a function instead, say

local function nice(str)
   return str .. " is nice"
end

Thanks in advance. Best regards,

Jairo

I'll add it (one of the more trivial things):

\starttext

\startluacode
     languages.replacements.add("basics", {
         ["one"]   = "cool",
         ["two"]   = function(s)
             return "warm"
         end
     })
\stopluacode

\start \setreplacements[basics] It's one in here! \stop \par
\start \setreplacements[basics] It's two in here! \stop \par

\stoptext
