Hi Hans,
many thanks for your explanation.
I wonder whether the new improvements could prevent body text running
into the footnotes (as some of us have already reported).

If you are open for suggestions, I would ask for a footnotes that behave
as a page index, such as in:
\setuplanguage[en][patterns={en,agr}]
\setuppapersize[A6]
\setupbodyfont[dejavu]
\definenote[dict]
\setupnote[dict][n=2,rule=off,
split=strict, inbetween=\hskip1.5em]
\setupnotation[dict][number=no,
style={\tfx\setupinterlinespace[line=2.5ex]}]
\starttext
Πρῶτον δεῖ θέσθαι τί ὄνομα\dict{ὄνομα,
-ατος, τό: noun} καὶ τί ῥῆμα\dict{ῥῆμα, -ατος, τό: verb},
ἔπειτα τί ἐστιν
ἀπόφασις\dict{ἀπόφασις, -εως, ἡ: negation}
καὶ κατάφασις\dict{κατάφασις, εως, ἡ:
affirmation} καὶ ἀπόφανσις\dict{ἀπόφανσις,
-εως, ἡ: statement} καὶ λόγος.
\stoptext
What I need there is that these notes are alphabetically sorted, such as
in a standard register.
As I proposed that (years ago), you told me it was too complex. I wonder
whether this would be easier with the current developments.
Many thanks for your improvements to ConTeXt,
Pablo
