I believe Idris S Hamid said this around Thu, 13 Feb 2003:

Actually, Eckhart Guth�hrlein came up with a suggestion a week or so ago
that does this. He had:

\def\citeplus[#1][#2][#3]{%
  {%
     \setupcite[#1][right={, #3)}]%
     \cite[#1][#2]%
  }%
}

I simplified it to something like:

\def\citepage[#1][#2]{%
  {%
     \setupcite[authoryears][right={, #2)}]%
     \cite[authoryears][#1]%
  }%
}

And it is used something like this:
\citepage[McAd:84][pp.~4--6]


Hope that gives enough of the flavor...

cheers,
adam
