Following the suggestions I tried to use the \column command to split
the columns. But my main problem remains. With the \startcolumnset
command I can not achive automatic balancing of columns.

I looked through the code in context and learned, that there is the
\startcolumns command wich can be given the [balance=yes]
parameter. This works, but then I can not use the other nice features
of the columnset environment. Further search in the code shows that
the balance=yes is also present in the columnset environment, but it
has no effect. Is this right, a missing feature or a malfunction?

I can provide an example, if this should work, and I'm doing
something wrong.

All hints gratefully accepted :-)
