The maintainer's comment was about plain TeX, not context. Sorry if that
wasn't clear.
In any case, I should have sent my request to Max alone, rather than the
ntg-context list, because if Max was going to push something there, I was
hoping that a second appeal for cmyk colour support in plain would be
nice. (I'm not quite ready to give up all of my plain TeX files.)

I agree about the colour profile, but the last time I poked that bear, my
pleas fell on deaf ears.
[And in summary, to be clear: I'm good with the colour support in ConTeXt!]
