Sorry, that was a leftover. I was testing in a docker container where I did not have vim installed. This will also work with regular vim.

Do you think this would be appropriate to do a simple page on the wiki explaining how R code can be done in ConTeXt, with eventual formatting, with some simple examples, or this is too much noise ?

Definitely. I think there is already a short page. But it will be good to add more detailed instructions.
