Just a quick comment, since I cannot try anything in LiveContext right
at this time:

What you want is the equivalent of LaTeX's \marginpar , which is really
a \vtop whose beginning coincides with the beginning of the paragraph
being \note[d].

I am thinking that this would be a good test case for Brooks Moses'
LaTeX-to-ConTeXt set of macros.  I will experiment with it tonight
unless someone beats me to the punch :-)  Best, elena
