Re: [NTG-context] Synonyms - feature request?

Folks,
I use the synonym feature heavily as technical documents can have hundreds of
them. It’s great I can produce a list of synonyms I actually use in a document.
Proper style however requires that each synonym be “explained” (shown in full)
the first time it is used — usually in a document, but sometimes in a smaller
scope, like a part or chapter. This is something I frequently get wrong, and is
something document reviewers are quick to complain about.
So it would be great if Context could do this automatically. The attached MWE
shows what I mean — with such a feature, the two paragraphs should come out the
same.
I’ve placed some (commented) guesses as to how this might be configured in
\setupsynonyms. Maybe better key names can be imagined.
Typically I would want synonym \XX\ to be expanded to XX (Xxx Xxx) the first
time it is used (alternative a), but the reverse (alternative b), Xxx Xxx (XX)
might be preferred. However a command could be used for a custom “explanation”.
Internally to Context, I guess this means each group of synonyms actually used
has to be complemented with a list of the synonyms that have been “explained”
(i.e., \infull{}) would add them to this second list). The second list would be
cleared each new scope (chapter, section). The \XX\ macro would explain the
synonym if it wasn’t on the second list (using \infull{}, which would then add
it).
None of this would change the behaviour of \placelistof… where you would
continue to select the criterium for the list you want output, independently of
The only further tweak might be a scheme so that certain common synonyms (a
third list) are never explained automatically (perhaps by example, UK in a
document written in and for a UK audience). This list would silently added to
the second list immediately after it was cleared, I guess. Synonyms for this
this list would be added by a slightly different version of the
synonym definition macro (perhaps \commonabbreviation instead of \abbreviation,
in the MWE).
Anyone think this would be a useful feature addition?

i.e. we already had CL CM and CR, so CT is new .. should be wikified.
I am using a two-week old beta (2015.04.03). CL has the same alignment as
r and CR has the same aligned as l.
I understand the historic reason for the difference between left and
flushleft, but shouldn't the alignment keys within the same mechanism have
the same meaning? (Or was this a bug that has been corrected in the
current beta).

Hi Alan,
I realize that I have not yet reacted to Hans’ reply. So let me do that first
(it was written but not yet sent).
Hi Hans,
Do I want to remap given index entries? Assuming I understand your reply
correctly the answer is: Yes, in principle. I would want to be able to change
them if there are errors, or if some publisher has different views about the
presentation of titles of items that are in the index (titles of songs, for
instance). And also when (parts of) the text has (have) to be reused for other
purposes. Change them in one operation, that is, not by digging up all
occurrences in the book of the item that has to be changed.
In answer to Alan’s question: names, theoretical treatises and manuscripts,
musical works, musical terms. Nearly all examples in the book have several
features that have to be indexed: composer’s name, title of the published work
(an opera for instance), title of the particular aria of which the example
shows a fragment, and the special features that are shown in the example,
parallel 7ths, for example.
The not-so-minimal example below (best processed iwth mkiv) gives an
impression, also of the optical clumsiness that makes the unprocessed text
practically unreadable. That is another reason why I would like to be able to
call an index entry by means of some sort of key, like in bibliographic items
for footnotes.
Kind regards,
Robert Blackstone
