The following example produces different results when processed by LMTX and MkIV. In particular, a space between the X and Y is not auto-inserted by LMTX, while it is by MkIV.

    \stoptexdefinition
    \tt
    \starttext
       \TEST{X} \emph{Y}
    \stoptext

The MkIV result is the correct result (in my opinion).
more a side effect ... we lookahead and \emph is not some character

I made a variants that does abetter job on that

\starttexdefinition TEST #1
    #1%
    \autoinsertedspace % subtle name change
\stoptexdefinition

but you have to wait till we update,

Thank you in advance for the upcoming fix.

Can you tell us (me) why you chose to create a new macro, \autoinsertedspace, instead of changing the code for \autoinsertnextspace in LMTX? Do you see a circumstance under which the current LMTX behavior of \autoinsertnextspace is desirable or required? Will the new macro be available under MkIV?
