That was not what I was trying to convey. What I meant to say was that
luaotfload needs to work out its own implementation. If it relies on
ConTeXt, then it has obviously no control over the code and hence it would
create some major problems. Indeed I am grateful to Hans, Khaled and anyone
else who has been working on luaotfload but a LaTeX or a generic TeX
package needs to implement its own code indepently.
