(1) main layout areas:
keywords to \setuplayout: header text footer
dimension variables: \headerheight etc
(2) space above and below main layout area:
keywords to \setuplayout: topspace bottomspace
dimension variables: \topspace, \bottomspace
(3) virtual layout areas: (used for interactive documents where
one wants to keep the main text area unchanged by setting these;
the virtual areas extend into the topspace and bottomspace)
keywords to \setuplayout: top header text footer bottom
dimension variables: \topheight, \headerheight etc
the system is set up in such a way that one can easily shift the text
area as well as disable header and footer
