There have been some requeste / demands / cries for more control over penalties lately. Since i needed something myself, i've implemented a mechanism for controling this. For the moment only at the outer level, but i'll add more hooks later.
I have uploaded a beta that implements setups (well, this was already there, occasionallly even broken, but let's consider it public now).
% output=pdftex interface=en
\startsetups [something]
\widowpenalty \maxdimen \clubpenalty \maxdimen \brokenpenalty\maxdimen \parfillskip \rapfillskip
\stopsetups
\startsetups [something]
\setups[reset]
\setpenalties\widowpenalties2\maxdimen
\setpenalties\clubpenalties 2\maxdimen
\brokenpenalty \maxdimen\stopsetups
\starttext
\setuplayout[lines=7,grid=yes,setups=something] \showgrid
\nohyphens \dorecurse{2}{\input ward \endgraf} \page
\stoptext
The source-lovers may taker a look in cors-spa.tex and search for \startsetups; there they will see the two defaults, as well as that they may notice that the setups may depend on the grid being active. I'm not yet sure if i keep it that way.
Now, the next thing is to decide how to deal with all those penalties; i can imagine that we collect interesting collections of penalties and so.
