In a minimal example like this:
\setuppapersize[A5]
\definecolumnset[TwoColumns][n=2]
\starttext
\startcolumnset [TwoColumns]
\dorecurse{10}{\samplefile{knuth}}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
… many columns start one line too low and overwrite their last line.
An extended example (nearly the same as in the manual) shows that some
column set spans don’t appear:
\showgrid\showframe
\definecolumnset[Beispiel][n=3]
\definecolumnsetspan[Zwei][n=2,color=blue]
\definecolumnsetspan[Drei][n=3,color=red]
\starttext
\startcolumnset[Beispiel]
\startcolumnsetspan[Drei]% this works
{\bfd Überschrift}
Anleser: \dorecurse{2}{#1: \samplefile{knuth}\par}
\stoptitle
\stopcolumnsetspan
Zwischen: \samplefile{tufte}\par
\startcolumnsetspan[Zwei]% This never shows up!
Zwei: \dorecurse{2}{#1: \samplefile{lorem}\par}
\stopcolumnsetspan
Nach: \dorecurse{15}{#1: \samplefile{knuth}\par}
\stopcolumnset
\stoptext
Also I seem to remember that column sets would enforce grid mode, but
they clearly don’t.
(BTW the old \startcolumns mode works better than I remembered.)
