framedtext

[Hans van der Meer <H.vanderMeer@uva.nl>]

I experience the following behaviour of framedtext in relation to  
inright and inleft.
With \startframedtext[offset=value] the positioning of left and right  
margin inserts shifts with the size of 'value'.

The next example shows the shift to the right of L2 and R2 (both mkii  
and mkiv). Change the offset to see the margin notes L2/R2 shift.
\starttext
\showframe[text,margin,edge]
ABC
\inright{\framed[width=10mm,height=5mm]{R1}}
\inleft{\framed[width=10mm,height=5mm]{L1}}
\startframedtext[offset=2cm]
XYZ
\inright{\framed[width=10mm,height=5mm]{R2}}
\inleft{\framed[width=10mm,height=5mm]{L2}}
\stopframedtext
\stoptext

Pictured:
..L1.|...................|.R1
.....|.L2................|.....R2
.....|...................|
.....^...................^
^ = frame lines of showpage

I wonder if this is correct behaviour. The margins are imho fixed  
areas, defined as the areas on the left/right of the textframe. One  
would expect the margin texts put just there, not influenced by  
something that happens to be placed in the text.
Or am I amiss?
