Most indexing programs, including Makeindex, Xindy, Cindex etc. will
automatically collapse successive page numbers into a page range. 
There may also be a mechanism for a manually specified range. Context 
has
the manual capability but I do not see any capablity for the automatic
collapsing of three or more successive page references into a range.
Before I go to the work of adapting Context to Makeindex via code
similar to that found in eplain, I would like to ask: is there an
automated range creation mechanism for Context, present or planned?
