Re: Heading for endnotes / grouped by chapter endnotes

[Rik Kabel <ConTeXt@rik.users.panix.com>]

For what its worth, I offer my endnote apparatus with updates for parts. 
It uses the standard note/notation mechanism, not a list, for endnotes. 
Perhaps it can be further adapted to the needs of this thread.

There is at least one small issue with it: I have to use \stopendnote 
even though I define \startEndnote. This causes issues with the linter 
(mtxrun --script check <fn>) but seems otherwise harmless.

I am sure that others more versed in ConTeXt can find some ways to fix 
this and improve the overall approach. I welcome suggestions.
