Yes, we felt that it was more consistent with other align mechanisms to default to math. So, for the 2nd column, we now have \NC for a "normal" (i.e., math) column and \TC for a text column. So you can use:
\startformula
\delta_{ij} =
\startcases
\NC 1 \TC if $i = j$ \NR
\NC 0 \TC otherwise \NR
\stopcases
\stopformula
\stoptext
