\definetextbackground works :). The following works correctly (breaks
across pages, and does not give false blank pages)
\definetextbackground
[example]
[width=\textwidth,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=lightgray,
frame=off,
leftoffset=1em,
rightoffset=1em,
location=paragraph,
after={\blank[small]},
before={\blank[small]}]
