Streams ignore textwidth

Streams ignore textwidth

[Aditya Mahajan]

Hi,

In streams width=whatever only sets the width of the bounding box, the 
text still goes until \textwidth. Is this a bug or a feature? A work 
around is to use setups:stream:settings, but it is a bit clumsy.

See the differece between the two streams below.

\usemodule[streams]

\definestreamlayer[flash][width=3in]
\definestreamlayer[model][width=3in]

\startsetups streamlayer:flash:settings
\hsize=3in
\stopsetups

\starttext

\startstreamlayer[flash]
\input tufte
\stopstreamlayer

\startstreamlayer[model]
\input tufte
\stopstreamlayer

\framed[sturt=no]{\placestreamlayer[flash]}

\framed[sturt=no]{\placestreamlayer[model]}

\stoptext

Aditya

i know, but it's needed this way because we intercept the otr and need 
to use the same settings several times

i will make a better stream model in mkiv
