Hans,

if that were possible, I would like to make two proposals (that come
from the roadmap thread
[https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/091512.html]). It
took me two months to catch up.

I think it could be interesting to have the implementation of vertical
scaling (as Hermann Zapf suggested to you) to avoid orphan an widows in
MkIV (https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/091541.html).

As mentioned in the past
(https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2018/091525.html), I would
like to have notes that handle automatically page registers.

Unfortunately, I cannot attend the ConTeXt Meeting. But the notes with
automatic page registers may qualify as unusual usage of ConTeXt. These
are relevant for language-learning texts (such as
https://geoffreysteadman.com/platos-crito/).

Many thanks for your excellent work with ConTeXt, LuaTeX and MetaPost,

Pablo
