Aha! So it's not just me unable to work it out correctly! It *is*
hard to implement ...

I tried

\def\DoCap{\NiceDroppedCaps{}{cmr12}{0pt}{2}}
\def\CapFirst{\EveryPar{\EveryPar{}\DoCap}}

\setuphead[subject][after=\CapFirst]

and the results are far from perfect, even when initial paragraphs
are long enough ... The Cap gets in the margin, and the subsequent
lines are too much indented ... can it depend on the fact that
first paragraphs are not indented in my setup?
