[-- Attachment #1.1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 476 bytes --]

Hello,

the attached example causes very strange page breaks.

1.  The subsubsubject is the last line on the first page. That doesn't
look very nice.

2. The xtable is broken although the whole table fits on that page.

Is there anything I (or you? :-)) can do about these two problems?

not that strange but it's obscured by the fact that you use a float 
(which has different spacing and room-for rules) without caption

in this case you can omit the placefloat and do

\startxtable[header=repeat,split=yes]

Doesn't  quite  work,  since  then  the header isn't repeated when the
table is actually split.

With  natural  tables there seems to be a similar problem. But I guess
that  enabling  split=yes  will  actually  place  it  inside  a  float
automatically which leads back to the initial problem.

You can tell context to force a page break when there isn’t enough space for the heading.

\setuphead[subsubsubject][before={\testpage[6]\blank[big]}]
