thanks, if I understand correctly, this follows my original idea to dynamically get the actual block width, simply substract indentation and use the variable for defining \parfillskip

I modified it slightly, but it doesn't seem to have desired effect. The last line of third paragraph is still too short:

\starttext
\hsize 15.37cm
\input tufte

\parfillskip30pt plus 1fil
\input tufte

\dimen0\hsize
\advance\dimen0 by -60pt
\parfillskip=30pt plus \dimen0
%\tolerance=0   % strictly enforces glue dimensions/stretching - may have unwanted side effects

\input tufte

\parfillskip0pt plus 1fil

\input tufte 

hsize is \the\hsize{}\par
dimen0 is \the\dimen0{}

\stoptext

I disabled that tolerance as it caused overflowing the text to the margin. Was that the key for the functionality?
