Thanks for your suggestion, but I didn't get it to work. In the end, I had recourse to some low-level stuff (caution, ugly code ahead!):

\defineoverlay[info][{\getbuffer[info]}]

\setupbackgrounds[page][background={info}]


\startbuffer[info]
\vbox to \paperheight \bgroup
  \vskip -1 cm
\framed[frame=off,align=high]{\tt \txx "\jobname" - \currentdate [y,/,mm,/,dd]\ - \currenttime\ - \realfolio\ of \lastpage}
   \egroup
\stopbuffer

(code adapted from construction of Thumb index on the wiki)

Which seems to be doing exactly what I want.

Thanks, and best

Thomas

x should be (CROPLeftX+CROPrightX)/2

not tested....
