Indeed, and thanks.

But isn't it a good idea that \setuppagenumbering should do the \resetpagenumber by itself? After all changing the pagenumber and not having it take effect sounds not a natural way to do things. It least, in my eyes.
Surely Hans Hagen is listening and will "weigh the evidence".

Is \setuppagenumber broken? Or do it misuse it?
In the next minimal example the pagenumbers are not reset after the third page, as I would expect.

\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\starttext
\setuppagenumber[number=1,state=start]
page 1\page
page 2\page
page 3\page
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
page 4\page
page 5\page
page 6\page
\stoptext


This works
\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\starttext
\setuppagenumber[number=1,state=start]
page 1\page
page 2\page
page 3\page
\setuppagenumber[number=1]\resetpagenumber
page 4\page
page 5\page
page 6\page
\stoptext
