I like the \usemodule [lettrine] package (a quick and dirty conversion of the LaTeX package of the same name).
It would be nice to include this functionality (perhaps cleaned-up) in the ConTeXt base macros. Then, it would also be nice to be able to activate an automatic mechanism to begin a first paragraph at some level (\chapter, \section, ... as defined, by default none) with a lettrine without having to explicitly use: \lettrine{O}{nce} upon a time...
