Ok, some days later I'm still not where I'd like to be (and my

Let’s resume:
A running text is to be interrupted by spans of 3 pages.
Postponing (\startpostponing) works well for that, but I need to
switch
off page numbering on two of that 3 pages - as far as I tried,
\setuppagenumbering as well as \setuppagenumber doesn’t work within
postponed sections.
Further, these pages contain full-page pictures, i.e. I need them
bleeding off the paper.
Normally, \setlayer works well for that, but I couldn’t get layers
working within postponed sections.
Since I need these interruptions several times in a very similar
way, I
\def’ed that postponing stuff as a macro, but get errors that point
to
expanding problems (I never get those).
I’d appreciate some pointers in which direction I should
think/investigate further.
E.g.
- are there alternatives to postponing? perhaps multi-page floats
(but
at defined pages)?
- is there a possibility for bleeding full-page pictures without
layers?
- can it work at all to change page numbering within a postponed
page span?
maybe
\startmakeup[page]
page a
\stopmakeup
Good hint. I setup:
\definemakeup[rightpage][page=right]
\definemakeup[leftpage][page=left]
and get empty right/left pages from within my macro.
Can I control if the content after a markup starts on a right or left
page?
Further, if I try to use postponing in a macro, I get errors:
--- *** ---
Runaway argument?
\dorecur\section{K\ETC. \stoppostponing
! File ended while scanning use of \buff_gobble.
system > tex > error on line 0 in file : File ended while

I guess I need to unexpand something?
My example:

\def\TestPostpone#1{
\startpostponing[#1]
\strut
\page
\stoppostponing
}
\starttext
\TestPostpone{3}
\dorecurse{30}{
\section{Knuth \recurselevel}
\input knuth
}
\stoptext
