So, if there's interest in the \starttable .. \stoptable mechanism (i have no
idea how often it is used) I can consider weeding and redoing some of that code
(or just rewrite it from scratch which is probably easier).
There is still a use for the old table macros because it’s easier to set
small tables (alignment in the preamble versus many \setupTABLE
settings), you can set different spacing between rows which is not part
of tabulate and you can span cells (also not supported in tabulate).
Perhaps we can add an align key to \startTABLE macro so that we could say
\startTABLE[align={left, right, middle}]
\NC a \NC b \NC c \NC \NR
\NC a \NC b \NC c \NC \NR
\stopTABLE
similar to math alignment.
