I did not realize the wiki software did that. On reflection I suppose that
is useful in many (most?) cases. But I'd argue that it is not always a good
thing, such as in this case. (If nothing else, it might mislead a n00b
into thinking that you should get output for text preceding \starttext.)
Here is the documentation for the <context> tag extension:

Hi Taco,
thanks very much for the link. But, ummm, what it says there seems to
contradict what Wolfgang told me in the other response to my message.
[[ I see Wolfgang edited the \blank wiki page to move the text in question
to after \starttext, but I'm sure if you don't believe what I say in the
next paragraph, you can grab the previous version. ]]
Specifically, the example in the (previous) \blank wiki page does, indeed,
have a \starttext and \stoptext. So, according to the page you mention
above, another \starttext and \stoptext should *not* be added. And yet the
(previous) \blank page example does print the text (as well as the bullets)
before the \starttext. Is there a discrepancy between what
.../Help:Context says and what actually happens?
When you take a look at the settings which are applied here you can see
\setupbodyfont[8pt] which is the reason why the text appears, compare
%%%% begin example
Before \tex{starttext}
\starttext
After \tex{starttext}.
\stoptext
%%%% end example
with
%%%% begin example
\setupbodyfont[12pt]
Before \tex{starttext}
\starttext
After \tex{starttext}.
\stoptext
%%%% end example
The second example loads a font before the text appear in the document
which is the reason why you can see it.
Wolfgang
