Hello, first - thanks for the perfectly synoptical https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Programming_in_LuaTeX#Namespaces !
My question (and the answer sould appear on wiki, too): Is any of the namespaces (userdata, thirddata, moduledata, documentdata, parametersets) automatically serialized between Ctx first(-second(-third)) runs? I'm asking because user may call some (longer) code and put the result into a namespace (be it e.g. "userdata"). And if that namespace was automatically serialized for next run(s), that code could be called conditionally - typically just in first run (= mode "*first" enabled) - as in next runs results of the additional code would be available in a namespace (instead of repetitive call of that (longer) code). Of course, user can perform such evaluation, storage and conditional extra-code-call individually, but maybe there is some support for similar situations in Ctx.
