For ConTeXt I just define the pdfTeX button to call texexec. There is no 
built-in ConTeXt capabilities, but it is almost trivial to add buttons or 
even create your own (I've made a few myself), define and insert 
environments, etc. Just look up all the options that define the LaTeX 
options and redefine them in ConTeXt (or just add the ConTeXt options). 
There is virtually no-hard-wired LaTeX support that can't be changed or 
augmented.

It may not be open-source:-(, but for TeX/ConTeXt you won't find better 
(yet).
