Hans,

here is my minimal sample:

    \showframe
    \starttext
    \setuphead[section][alternative=margin]
    \section{This is a title}
    \stoptext

After having to adapt a special page design for a friend, I realized
that reverse would be an even greater value for the alternative option
in \setuphead when it could be combined with margin, inmargin and
margintext.

This may be reached with a special command, but avoiding a extra hack
would be very helpful for newbies.

Another issue with margin numbering is alignment:

    \showframe
    \starttext
    \setuphead[section][alternative=margin, align=center]
    \section{This is a title}
    \stoptext

Would it be possible in this case to set both numberalign and textalign?
(If no margin or inmargin alternative is selected and both numberalign
and textalign are specified, textalign should have preference)

I think those two suggestions would provide extra features for headings.

How about implementing both in ConTeXt?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
