play a bit with:

\setupblank[5pt] \showstruts

\strut test \blank[small]
\strut test \blank[medium]
\strut test \blank[big]
\strut test \blank[line]
\strut test

\startcolumns[balance=no,blank=5pt]
\strut test \blank[small]
\strut test \blank[medium]
\strut test \blank[big]
\strut test \blank[line]
\strut test
\stopcolumns

so, columns default to a skip of lineheight, unless told not to (has to do 
with the one-multi column switching and proper spacing)
