That makes sense. I wasn't really thinking of my sections as "chapters" per
se. And I was forcing sections (each >5 pages) to start on new (odd) pages.
But switching to chapters is fine and takes care of some other stuff I was
forcing.

How does this interact with \startsectionblockenvrironment? I found this on
wiki.contextgarden.net/Table_of_Contents for suppressing header/footer on TOC.
I did not specify frontmatter before, but moving the header/footer content into
the environment file messed up my formerly clean TOC page. :-) So, I've
currently got:
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]
\setupheader[state=none]
\setupfooter[state=none]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
Do I keep this and also include your code above? Or can both things be taken
care of together somehow?

Excited to try this once I know what to do with the sectionblock stuff.
Going to fiddle...
THANKS!!!
