Dynamic frame height

I'm trying to create a section at the bottom of a page that has a number of  
blank lines for writing notes.  However, I want the frame and the lines to be 
automatically generated from the remaining space on the page.  How do I 
control the number of lines and the frame height to achieve the desired 
results?

\starttext
\input tufte
\blank
\framed[
corner=00
]{
        \vbox{
                Notes:\crlf
                \dorecurse{4}{\crlf\thinrule}
}}
\stoptext

Thanks,
Bart
