Hello all,
here's a test document:
[test document]
As you may notice, items think the placefigure refers to all
of them, so that if a particular item is bigger than the
figure height, it will wrap correctly around the
(inexistent) box, otherwise it will just side it.
Interesting, the same thing does *not* happen when not going
through a box, but typesetting things directly in the page.
However, for my application I need to typeset the sidefloat
and the itemization in a box, so I hit the bug ...
Suggestions?

Hi Giuseppe,
you can use ConTeXt's stream mechanism.
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\usemodule[streams]
\definestreamlayer[giuseppe][width=\textwidth]
\newbox\giuseppe
\starttext
\startstreamlayer[giuseppe]
\placefigure
[outer,none,fit]
{}
{\framed[width=.2\hsize,height=.2\hsize,offset=none]{}}
\startitemize
\item some test
\item \input knuth
\item \input tufte
\stopitemize
\stopstreamlayer
\vbox{\placestreamlayer[giuseppe]}
\page
\startstreamlayer[giuseppe]
\placefigure
[outer,none,fit]
{}
{\framed[width=.2\hsize,height=.2\hsize,offset=none]{}}
\startitemize
\item some test
\item \input knuth
\item \input tufte
\stopitemize
\stopstreamlayer
\vbox{\placestreamlayer[giuseppe]}

Ah, excellent, it works perfectly, thanks a lot! Of course,
I'm still curious about the reason why a standard vbox
wouldn't do it ...

sidefloats hook into the output routine and that does ot work in a box;
streams intercept the page stream (nasty but neat); expect more of that
kind of stuff
