[NTG-context] Wiki: new commands not automatically available for autogenerated syntax (was LTR footnotes from RTL paragraph)

And, the new option for \setupalign does not show up in the autogenerated syntax overview at https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupalign I probably don't fully understand how the wiki works in these regards .. can anyone clarify?

Re: [NTG-context] Conditional text appearing in a fixed vertical space
You can also consider using viewerlayer:
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\defineviewerlayer[solution]
\setupcolors[state=start]
\usecolors[xwi]
\definecolor[keyColor][1.0(maroon)]
\starttext
\startitemize[n]
\but[ToggleLayer{solution}]
\samplefile{tufte}
\blank[big]
\startviewerlayer[solution]
\keyColor
\samplefile{knuth}
\stopviewerlayer
\stopitemize
\stoptext
I print the file with the solution layer off to a 'clean' file for students.

in ConTeXt \sub is a special item command, and I use itemize to number problems.

Re: [NTG-context] Conditional text appearing in a fixed vertical space
Thanks Fabrice and Aditya!
With three completely different approaches, I learned three times more than I
was expecting. This has been a great help. I will probably use the framedtext
method, but I learned something from each.

For poetry that has non-regular indentations, I simply
\definelines[poem] and set that up the way I want, obviously, with
\setuplines[poem] e.g. [before={\blank

And then, but I guess it is still a hack, I use \hskip at a suitable
dimension whenever I need indented lines:
\startpoem
This is line one,
\hskip1em{This is line two}
This is line three,
\hskip1em{This is line four,}
\hskip1em{This is line five.}
\rightaligned{Poet's name}
