\def\startwhatever%
  {\dowithnextbox
     {\roteer{\box\nextbox}}
     \vbox to \tekstbreedte \bgroup
       \forgetall \hsize \teksthoogte
       \def\stopwhatever{\egroup}}

\starttext

\input tufte \input tufte  \input tufte

\startwhatever
  \input tufte
\stopwhatever

\input tufte \input tufte \input tufte \input tufte

\startpostponing
  \startwhatever
    \placefigure{}{}
  \stopwhatever
\stoppostponing

\input tufte \input tufte \input tufte \input tufte

\stoptext

Now, what is a suitable name for such a macro? 

Hans
