indeed, and when you come from context export, just process the file in 
1pt bodyfont on a very large page .. no page breaks, margin mess, floats 
moving then ...

(btw, it's a pitty that pdf viewers can't handle very high pages well 
because having a book with every chapter one page would be nice ... no 
float issue then; i tried that but the problem is that viewers don't 
remember the vertical positions when you go backward)
