Hi all,

with natural tables I can’t seem to get column breaks right.
Example:

··8<·····························································

\setuppapersize[A5][A5]
\definecolumnset[three][n=3]

\starttext
\startcolumnset[three]
\dorecurse{5}{
  \subject{Test nr. \recurselevel}
  Some paragraph.\par
  \penalty10000 % comment me to get even footer; well, sort of …
  \bTABLE[split=yes]
  \bTABLEbody
    \dorecurse{80}{
      \bTR\bTC Nr.\eTC\bTC\recurselevel\eTC\eTR
    }
  \eTABLEbody
  \eTABLE
  Text after.\par\column
}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext

··8<·····························································

The crude prevention of a column break before the table appears
to cause the first column to extend into the footer. However,
without the ‘\penalty’ the table will always appear on a new
column -- not looking well if there’s not much to typeset besides
the table itself.

Is there a way to get the best of both worlds: an even footer
without a break before the table?

I’d be grateful for any hints or suggestions, Philipp
