Something that has worked for me in the past is not working for me at 
the moment, and I cannot figure out why:

\startsectionblockenvironment [frontpart]

\setupuserpagenumber [numberconversion=romannumerals]

\setcounter [userpage] [5]

\stopsectionblockenvironment

\startsectionblockenvironment [bodypart]

\setcounter [userpage] [1]

\stopsectionblockenvironment

gives me roman numerals in the TOC but not on the frontmatter pages, 
which are arabic. Bodymatter is okay. What could I possibly be doing wrong?

Even with a different setup I get the same result:

\definestructureconversionset [frontpart:pagenumber] [] [romannumerals]
\setupheads[title][sectionconversionset=section]
\startsectionblockenvironment[frontpart]
\setupuserpagenumber[numberconversion=romannumerals]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\stopsectionblockenvironment

Puzzling (for me at least).

I have found the problem, but am still seeking a little help:

I had created a setup to raise the page number in the footer. Calling 
this setup resulted in the frontpart pages reverting to arabic instead 
of roman:

\startsetups pnfooter

\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location=]

\setupfooter

   [style=normal]

   \setupfootertexts

   [{\framed[width=max,frame=off,boffset=2mm]{\pagenumber}}]

\stopsetups

How can I continue to use the setup but still get my roman numerals in 
the frontpart?
