Dear context users:

I'd like to handle a block of text with 2 or more lines where the 
block width should be equal
to the longest line in the block. I'd like the lines be center aligned 
in the block.

Something like this:

line1
second longerline
another line

In latex I can do it using parbox like this:

\parbox{\widthof{second longerline}}{\centering{}line1\\second 
longerline\\another line}


How can achieve the same or similar in context?

\starttext

\startframed[align=middle]
line\\
second longer line\\
another line
\stopframed

\stoptext
