This is why it is always a good idea to preface references with a
(personal) identifier. However, perhaps Hans, Wolfgang, or someone else
can explain the use of colons (:) and double colons (::) in references
and in other tags in general (they have to do with namespaces,

Re: [NTG-context] reference containing parentheses causes trouble
Actually in the context of references, not only parentheses as Wolfgang pointed
out, but also some words are reserved, such as nextpage and previous page:
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
\goto{Second page}[page(2)]
\goto{Go to next page}[nextpage]
\page
\goto{ConTeXt garden}[url(http://wiki.contextgarden.net)]
\goto{Go to previous page}[previouspage]

Re: [NTG-context] reference containing parentheses causes trouble
Hi Sanjoy,
I think it's just the 'normal' limitations you have when setting a
variable/id name. Special characters, like parenthesis, are not allowed
here.
Even whitespace can be problematic. Yesterday I had a problem with a
reference (data driven) that has a trailing space (obviously a typo).
This space was 'eaten' by TeX, resulting in a broken link. Embracing the
argument helped here, but I haven't tested what happens, if you use
multiple spaces in a row...
Greetings, Peter

[NTG-context] reference containing parentheses causes trouble
Dear List,
Warning: The following may be a bug or feature or just my
misunderstanding! It seems that parentheses cause trouble in
references. MNWE:
\starttext
\section[sec:one(two)]{One}
As you see in sec.~\in[sec:one(two)],
\stoptext
The "in sec.~\in[sec:one(two)]" typesets as "in sec. ??" and the log
shows:
references > start missing references
references >1 [][sec:one(two)]
references > stop missing references
(It all works fine upon deleting "(two)" throughout.)
Is this behavior known and expected? If it is, I'll add a note to the
"References" page on the wiki.
-Sanjoy
