Any appararent drawback of using the following approach...
\definetextbackground
[test]
[ location=paragraph,
leftoffset=1em,
before={\blank[1cm]},
after={\blank[1cm]}]
\startuseMPgraphic{mpos:par:columnset}
path p;
for i = 1 upto nofmultipars :
p := multipars[1] topenlarged 1cm bottomenlarged 1cm;
fill p withcolor 0.9white ;
draw p withcolor \MPvar{linecolor}
withpen pencircle scaled \MPvar{linewidth};
endfor;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\starttext
\input knuth \endgraf
\hairline \par
\starttextbackground[test]
\dorecurse{13}{\input knuth \endgraf}
\stoptextbackground
\hairline \par
\input knuth \endgraf
\stoptext
