I think they are missing, because it makes the following work, even though
arguments and key-value arguments shouldn't be mixed up.
\startbuffer[hash]
foo
\stopbuffer
\savebuffer[hash][hello.txt,prefix=no]
\starttext
\stoptext
I think you should either make a third argument for a key-value list or just
make the second argument the key-value list. Then users could input
\savebuffer[hash][file=hello.txt,prefix=no].
the first argument can be a key/value list in which case the second one is
ignored
\savebuffer[list=hash,file=hello.txt,prefix=no]
I'd still recommend adding braces around this #2. Imagine a user does this
\savebuffer[hash][my,file,name,with,commas.txt]
such behaviour is true for all kind of things, normally a user will then
add the { }
also, using commas in filenames is not that clever

[NTG-context] Perhaps missing braces in buff-ini.mkiv?
Dear list,
it seems as if there are braces missing in the definition of \buff_save around
#2.
\def\buff_save[#1][#2]%
{...
{\setupcurrentsavebuffer[\c!list={#1},\c!file=#2]}%
...}
I think they are missing, because it makes the following work, even though
arguments and key-value arguments shouldn't be mixed up.
\startbuffer[hash]
foo
\stopbuffer
\savebuffer[hash][hello.txt,prefix=no]
\starttext
\stoptext
I think you should either make a third argument for a key-value list or just
make the second argument the key-value list. Then users could input
\savebuffer[hash][file=hello.txt,prefix=no].
Cheers, Henri
