1. The \fillintext commands expects a paragraph as argument.

2. The command description in setup-en.pdf is wrong because I missed this.

3. You get a working example when you add \par at the end of the text 
but a blank line doesn't work.

%%%% begin example
\starttext

\fillintext[width=3cm]{start of field}{extra argument} 
\samplefile{lorem} \par

\stoptext
%%%% end example

4. Below is a simplified version of the problem.

%%%% begin example
\def\test
   {\dowithnextbox{\unhbox\nextbox\blank}%
    \hbox\bgroup\let\par\egroup}

\starttext

% this doesn't work
\test xxx

% this works
%\test xxx\par

\stoptext
%%%% end example
