Hello,

A more advanced question. With default settings, ConTeXt is prone to start new 
page for the itemization that doesn't fit. That is,

Compared to the manual drafting, computer-aided drafting has the following 
advantages: 
\startitemize[packed]
\item Errors and changes can be erased very simply, and without leaving any 
trace on the drawing.
\item Small details can be enlarged to the limit of computer's accuracy, and 
can thus be comfortably worked on.
\item Items that appear many times on the drawing (e.g., electronic 
com-ponents) need only be drawn once, and then can be rapidly copied as many 
times as required.
\item Drawing can be drawn at exact scale; when the drawing is ready to go onto 
paper, the computer scales it to fit the page.
\item Related items on the drawing can be grouped on layers, which can be 
activated or deactivated at will for plotting or display.
\item Corporate standards are easily imposed by using drawing templates.
\stopitemize

In this excerpt the first paragraph is left alone with much space below it and 
the list is placed on the next page. 

How to teach the ConTeXt to be more space-economical?

Best,
Vyatcheslav
