Hi all,

Ah, found the solution in TextBackground. At here: 
https://www.contextgarden.net/TextBackground 
<https://www.contextgarden.net/TextBackground>

Can I have a 2-segment (2 vboxes) TextBackground (presumably with 2 
TextBackgrounds, zero vspace between them)?

For the top segment, I want rounded corners only for top corners (corner=03 
with \framed).

Seems I really should dig into MetaFun and TextBackground. Looks really fun and 
useful.

Sorry for the noise. Am a little carried away exploring the Garden. :-P

Regards
Jon
