While visualising index-entires in the margin using \version[temporary] isn't implemented for MkIV yet, I'd like to define a basic stand-in in the meantime:
\setupmargindata[inmargin][location=outer, style=itxx]
\define[1]\myindex{\index{#1}%
\inmargin{#1}%
}
But occurrences of e.g.
\myindex[CONTEXT]{\ConTeXt}
break these simple definitions.
Is there an easy way to define commands with options and/or patching (extending) existing commands?
Thanks in advance!
Florian.

How could I possibly have overlooked this?!
Thanks a lot!
