[Tikzdevice-bugs] Context and tikz?

Hi

The reason I am actually very interested in tikzDevice is that I need to 
produce plots with "spotcolors", i.e. printing won't be done with a 
three (RGB) or four (CMYK) but only two colors (one black, the other one 
a pantone color). Unfortunately, both pdf() and ps() in R do not have 
the spotcolor model...

I had found this page:

http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Colors#In_TikZ

which gave me some hope I would be able to use spotcolors, but actually 
I think it concerns only conText? I must say I just discovered tikz, so 
no clear idea on what is compatibility of the code for context? I see a 
mention of context in the tikzDevice guide... has been any work on this 
direction? Which step would you recommend me to do get the generated 
tikz code runing on context?

Thanks so much!

Matthieu
