Thanks, Wolfgang. This is very helpful, though I must say that, in this
case, ConTeXt is being a bit obtuse. Maybe an official, dedicated
\start-stopblockquote
command, independent of the other two and with no quotation marks by
default, is in order here (please, Hans?).
OTOH your illustration gives me ideas for other things; thnx again and all
the
Best
