seesms like you are in need of layers:
\definelayer[tobias]
\defineoverlay[tobias][\composedlayer{tobias}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=tobias]
\starttext
\setlayer[tobias][x=3cm,y=6cm]{\bfd It Works!}
\input tufte
\stoptext
I'll send you an updated piee of the metafun manual explaining how to move
things from the front to the back and align.
