Hi,

In the last couple of lmtx uploads \startTEXpage should work a bit 
better. These uploads also introduced a new option for alignments, which 
can be checked in:

\def\DemoA#1{\vbox{\red                      \hsize#1\input tufte }}
\def\DemoB#1{\vbox{\green \setupalign[always]\hsize#1\input tufte }}
\def\DemoC#1{\startTEXpage[offset=10pt]\DemoA{#1pt}\blank\DemoB{#1pt}\blank#1pt\stopTEXpage}

\starttext

     \dostepwiserecurse{300}{600}{10}{
         \startTEXpage[offset=10pt]
             \startoverlay
                 {\DemoA{#1pt}}
                 {\DemoB{#1pt}}
             \stopoverlay
             \blank
             \the\dimexpr#1pt\relax
         \stopTEXpage
     }

     \DemoC{370} \DemoC{390} \DemoC{490} \DemoC{540} \DemoC{580}

\stoptext

I leave it to users to determine if the few cases where the results 
differ are better or worse but one can for instance use it to influence 
(as side effect) the last line. In general, tweaking the machinery can 
give different results and i guess that hardly any user can make 
consistent claims about what is better. It all depends on what one deals 
with.

(The keyword is suboptimal, it kind of tells what happens but on the 
other obscurew what really goes on: always forcing a first hyphenation 
pass when breaking lines.)
