Solution 1:
\definetextbackground[john-background][frame=off,location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=green]
\definetextbackground[mary-background][frame=off,location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=red]
\defineenumeration
[john]
[ text=John: ,
width=3em,
number=no,
location=left,
before={\starttextbackground[john-background]},
after=\stoptextbackground]
\defineenumeration
[mary][john]
[ text=Mary: ,
before={\starttextbackground[mary-background]},
after=\stoptextbackground]
\starttext
\john What did you have for breakfast?\par
\mary I skipped breakfast today.\par
\startjohn Oh, why?\stopjohn
\startmary Because I wasn't hungry. I was too distraught at what had happened
the previous night.\stopmary
\stoptext
Solution 2:
\usemodule[annotation]
\definetextbackground[john-background][frame=off,location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=green]
\definetextbackground[mary-background][frame=off,location=paragraph,backgroundcolor=red]
\defineannotation
[john]
[ text=John,
stopper=: ,
inbetween=,
before={\starttextbackground[john-background]},
after={\stoptextbackground},
spacebefore=nowhite]
\defineannotation
[mary][john]
[ text=Mary,
before={\starttextbackground[mary-background]},
after={\stoptextbackground}]
\starttext
\john{What did you have for breakfast?}
\mary{I skipped breakfast today.}
\startjohn Oh, why?\stopjohn
\startmary Because I wasn't hungry. I was too distraught at what had happened
the previous night.\stopmary
\stoptext
