Something I cannot do with LaTeX that I would like to be able to do
is have the text on the first page be single column and starting with
the second page have the text be double column - even if the page
transition is in the middle of a paragraph.
Is this possible to do with ConTeXt?
I think so, see manual columns.pdf
But it is not possible to switch completely automatically, even
without a mid-paragraph pagebreak, I'm afraid.
I believe that columset mechanism (based on pouring \parshape from
paragraph to paragraph and output routine support) can do it. Even in
the manual is an example. But I share your doubts in case of some
complex pages (floats, margins, marks). But plain text should be OK.
I am curious about the practical experience.
