Repeating page backgrounds

Repeating page backgrounds

Hi,

I thought that \setupbackgrounds[page][state=repeat] would result in  
placing the defined background on every page. - It seems that I miss  
something or the mechanism is broken.

Se attached sample-file.

This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.50.0-2009122422
Context current version: 2010.01.25 11:09

The example gives the page background on the first page only with  
MKII as well as with MKIV.

This is the normal behaviour for layers, what you want is

\definelayer[PageLayer][...,state=repeat]
