This produces two columns when typeset on the upper half of the page.
Suddenly about halfway the page the columns are not put side by
side but
below each other!
Can you give an example that shows the problem?

I ran the next code on the Live Context site and it gave me first
column on the first page and second column on page 2.
\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\input tufte}
\startcolumns[n=2]
first column
\column
second column
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
But, as Hans Hagen wrote in another reply:
\column is just not that trustworthy; columnsets give more control but
cannot be used mixed with one column
However, I seem to remember columnsets as fairly complex.
