less font files because latin modern has all those glyphs in it (once vietnamese 
is in there some 600 glyphs per font); for speed and consistency i may add a 
bunch of <encoding>-lmr*.tfm files but users will not notice it;

latin modern support is already present in context

another advantage is that once we default to latin modern, we have the glyoh sin 
the proper ascii slots, which means less hassle with xml
