buffers (or blocks)
Buffers apparently can't be used before the content is defined, but
it works for blocks (I never used them). Test:
\defineblock [bar]
\starttext
buf: \getbuffer[foo]
BBBBBBBBBBB
\startbuffer[foo]
buf: AAAAAAAAAAA
\stopbuffer
\useblocks [bar]
DDDDDDDDDDD
\beginbar
block: CCCCCCCCCCC
\endbar
\stoptext
Is there a reason why the blocks favour begin/end instead of
start/stop? Looks weird somehow.
(1) nicer symmetry checks (matching begin/end start/stop)
(2) more visible in complex docs
(3) it was first needed for \beginquestion \startquestion ...
\stopquestion \endquestion
etc
