Hans,
real-world needs may be complex, such as in the following sample:
\starttext
\completecontent
\dorecurse{3}
{\startpart
\edef\pn{\recurselevel}
\dorecurse{30}
{\startchapter\markpage[start-\pn.\recurselevel]
\dorecurse{\randomnumber{0}{30}}
{\input knuth\par}
\markpage[stop-\pn.\recurselevel]\stopchapter}
\stoppart}
\stoptext
This generates a document to be split in 90 individual documents. I
cannot even think in specifying them manually.
It would be very useful to have something similar to:
context --extra=select --selection=pages oeps --once --autopdf
I hope my explanation is clearer now.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo

Many thanks for the new stuff, Hans.
This could be an approach:
\starttext

{\startchapter\markpage[start-\recurselevel]
\dorecurse{\randomnumber{0}{1000}}
{\input knuth\par}
\markpage[stop-\recurselevel]\stopchapter}
\stoptext
"start-" and "stop-" could define page ranges when the same identifier
is used.
The select style could generate from start-identifier and
stop-identifier, the result "identifier.pdf".
\startchapter[reference=whatever,title=foo]
\stopchapter
\startchapter[reference=moreover,title=oof]
\stopchapter
and --pages=whatever,moreover will give you the info you need to call
context --extra=copy or whatever with the right arguments

On the console you see the pagenumbers right? What you need is the
realpage. You could actually do something:
\dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{tufte}\page}
\appendetoks
\writestatus{!}{}
\writestatus{!}{SPLIT HERE: \the\realpageno}
\writestatus{!}{}
\to \everystoptext
\dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{tufte}\page}
and then use this number in:
context --extra=select --selection=1:4oeps.pdf --once --autopdf
context --extra=select --selection=5: oeps.pdf --once --autopdf
(We can actually relate tags to pages so maybe I will make something to
pick that up from the tuc file.)

Thanks, that's helpful. So to automate this, I'll just need to get the
pagenumbers from the log file. I'll give it a try.
