bug in indentation

[Idris Samawi Hamid]

Dear knights,

There is apparently something wrong with the indenting mechanism in the latest 
context: I have to invoke indenting twice to cut it on (uncomment the second 
\setupindenting):

============================
% output=pdf interface=en

\setupwhitespace[none]
\setupindenting[medium,next] % does not indent
%\setupindenting[medium,next] % need both to indent

\definestartstop
  [quote]
  [before={\startnarrower[1*middle]\blank[big]},
    after={\stopnarrower\blank[big]}]

\starttext

\input knuth

\startquote
\input knuth
\stopquote

\input knuth

\stoptext
============================

log verifying version

=============================
This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2c 7.5.3) (format=cont-en 
2005.8.18)  18 AUG 2005 21:47

=============================

Similarly, if I want a local exception to the indentation I need something 
like

\start\setupindenting[none]\setupindenting[none]

<paragraph>

\stop

Also, dropped capes does not work well when indentation is on, calling for the 
local exception above.

Finally, \indenting and \noindenting don't work like they used to: bug or 
feature?

I actually spent hours trying to debug a huge manuscript (with messed up now 
fixed indentation) before finally realizing and isolating the problem.

Upgrading ConTeXt is always an adventure...

I've verified this bug, but will probably have to wait until Hans is
back (i don't understand his changes to \setupindenting)
