I did not know that it could be done with \setupblank. I was told that
I needed to define a \myblank for it.

But still I think it would be good that after a blank there is no indentation.
Firstly: that is the way it works in mkii. Why does mkiv do it differently?
Secondly: You use -in my opinion- next, because the first paragraph is
clear that it is a new paragraph. After a bank (or a flowchart) it is
clear that there starts a new paragraph. So it does not need to be
indented in my opinion.
