Depending on your needs and how adventurous you are, Aleph might help as a
temporary fix. The omlgc font is Times-based and so might look better for
your tastes. See http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Aleph_Guide for install
details and setting up your own \start-\stop environments
Unfortunately Aleph is based on an old version of e-TeX and so some
ConTeXt features might not work well. In a few months you may be able to
use luaTeX with omlgc with proper access to all ConTeXt features.
For working with Aleph in ConTeXt see the wiki entries. Here is a working
cyrillic file with three different encodings: utf-8, Win1251, and koi8-r.
Again, a bit adventurous, but hopefully some of the people on the list may
benefit.
Good luck
Idris
