If we're talking about \in-s, references, ... It would simplify my
style file considerably if I was able to get the chapters labelled as
C1, C1, ... instead of only 1, 2, ... I could get rid of left= which I
do need when referencing to the questions.
I would also like such a feature. I frequently have
\defineitemgroup[features]
\setupitemgroup[features][each][left=(F,right=),stopper=]
\setupitemgroup[features][each][n,2*broad]
and the I usually do
\definereferenceformat[infeature][left=(F,right=)]
and use \infeature. It would be nice if one could have
referenceleft and referenceright in most setup commands.
we can think of using labels; deep down the core:
\setuplabeltext[\s!itemcount1={{I(},{)}}]
\def\labeledcountervalue#1{\labeltexts{#1}{\countervalue{#1}}}
etc etc; not that hard, but we need some rainy days and such
(with instead if itemcount item:1 item:2 etc)
this needs some work because itemize has its own numbering (historic reasons)
so ... you can file a feature request and remind me every now and then

It seems that you're reading my mind. I guess that it must be

\stopquestion
I get Question Q 1 (but I can't find a way to get Q1 as is possible in
sections - the space seems to be there by default).
I thought that
headcommand=\myquestioncommand
(command spotted when I took a look at texshow, it's not in the manual) and
\def\myquestioncommand#1{Question Q#1}
would solve that, but I don't see any evidence of \myquestioncommand
ever being called/executed.
I would be very happy if this issue was solved as well. Perhas a
left=,right=
pair of keywords could solve the problem (left= and right= surrounding
the number; but then we would also have to surround the label with
something as well), where the default of left= would be a space.
\[whatever]commad= could also solve the problem.
