Continuing an old thread... with four questions (and no tricks):

FIRST QUESTION:

"chaptle", "suction"?
I get it! But I did not immediately (maybe I am a bit slow). It's too clever 
to be easily retained so I suggest finding another solution.

Would not a better syntax be something like:
 \section [number=no] {Conclusions}
 \chapter [number=no] {A final word}
(from a user's point-of-view, I haven't looking into the programming)?


SECOND QUESTION:

\starttext
\startfrontmatter
 \chapter{Preface}
\stopfrontmatter

\startbodymatter
 \chapter{First chapter}
 \chapter{Second chapter}
\stopbodymatter

\startappendices
 \chapter{First appendix}
 \chapter{Second appendix}
\stopappendices

\startbackmatter
 \chapter{Concluding note}
\stopbackmatter

\stoptext

Yields:

Preface
1 First chapter
2 Second chapter
A First appendix
B Second appendix
Concluding note

As it should.

However, adding
 \setuplabeltext[chapter=Chapter ] % with trailing space; blank by default
gives a nice label in the header, yet also yields "Chapter A First 
appendix"... This is clearly wrong! Reading the source (strc-def.mkiv), I 
tried:
 \setuplabeltext [appendix=Appendix ] % with trailing space; blank by default
but this does not work. Is this a bug?

Note that I also tried:
 \definehead [appendix] [chapter]
 \setuplabeltext [appendix=Appendix ] % with trailing space; blank by default
 \definecombinedlist [content] [chapter,appendix]
and replaced \chapter with \appendix between \startappendices\stopappendics 
which sort-of works: 1) this is not elegant 2) does not appear in bookmarks.


THIRD QUESTION:

Adding
 \setuplist [chapter] [label=yes,width=5em]
to get the nice label to appear in the table of contents yields:

Chapter   Preface
Chapter 1 First chapter
Chapter 2 Second chapter
Chapter A First appendix
Chapter B Second appendix
Chapter   Concluding note

So this is NOT the way to go! Is there a simple and elegant solution?


FOURTH QUESTION:

Should not the numbering (1, 2, A, B) get included in the bookmarks? If this 
should not be so by default, can this feature be easily activated?
