I recently had the same thought and I've started working on one.
You can see it here:

https://github.com/Jason-S-Ross/ox-context/

It's no substitute for the LaTeX exporter but it implements a lot
of the basics. I'm deriving from the LaTeX exporter but I have
to override most of the transcoders so it may be better to start
from scratch.

Disclaimer: I'm learning elisp as I go, so please excuse the
rough edges.
