Just to let the readers of this list know: The problem has been  
solved on the ConTeXt mailing list. Adjusting the kerning of OpenType  
fonts only works with (some) hyphenation patterns when luaotfload  
operates in basic mode. Using fontspec, you have to load the font  
with the option "Renderer=Basic" (see below).
