Wolfgang,

Thank you for the suggestions.
However, I have tried many such, things...

Yes, of course, but \starttitle does not, by design, add an entry
to the TOC, nor a bookmark. And

\starttitle [title={Conclusions}]
\writetolist[chapter]{}{Conclusions}% works
\bookmark{Conclusions}% Does not work!

is less elegant than

\startchapter [number=no,incrementnumber=no,title={Conclusions}]

(but does have the advantage of suppressing the "Chapter" label.)

You suggest that I use insidesection={\placecontent\blank}
rather than after={\placecontent\blank}. OK, this works.

However, in both cases, the contents get placed after the above
\starttitle (or \startchapter) commands, something that one really does
not want. Alternately, adding \placecontent\blank everywhere else is
sloppy.

I do not really want to create new headings for this purpose,
if I can avoid it, and should be unnecessary.
The suggestion would be for specific instances of \startchapter etc.
to be able to take \setuphead keywords as local definitions.
