Would a MkIV solution also work with nested buffers or limited or limited to 
unseated buffers like the MkII solution?

There are also a few points in the setup which aren’t perfect:

- Before and after values for each paragraph is set with 
\setupbuffer[before=…,after=…] but \setupbufferparagraph[before=…,after=…] 
seems better because it separates between the buffer as a single block and 
between the individual paragraphs.

- The offset for the paragraphs to be skipped is set with 
\setupbuffer[paragraph=<number>] but “start=<number>” fits better in the normal 
numbering system.

- Allow certain setups for individual paragraphs, e.g.

  \setupbufferparagraph[3][..,..=..,..]
  \setupbufferparagraph[first][..,..=..,..]
  \setupbufferparagraph[last][..,..=..,..]
