Dear gang,
ConTeXt currently follows archaic BibTeX conventions in labeling doctoral
dissertations for bibliography. So we have the tag 'phdthesis' as in
\startpublication[k=hamid98,
t=phdthesis,
a=Hamid,
y=1998,
Is there a way to report the “character count including spaces” of the
resulting PDF in ConTeXt?

If you define summary as a duplicate of section, the former will inherit

All you have to do is refine the unwanted features in summary.
