Thank you for the report. The reason for LaTeX mode is that this
treatment enables AUCTeX to add flexibly new commands afterwards as
paragraph starters through sub files supporting various LaTeX packages
("style files" in AUCTeX terminology). AUCTeX style files overwrites
`paragraph-start' casually in LaTeX mode, so users who want to customize
it in the LaTeX mode hook should actually set `LaTeX-paragraph-commands'
instead.

In principle, ConTeXt mode should have similar framework, although the
current AUCTeX style files have no support for ConTeXt modules except
TikZ.

I think I can implement `ConTeXt-paragraph-commands' like LaTeX mode and
then you can set it instead of `paragraph-start'. What do you think
about this idea?
