there are sectionworlds (core-swd) but i'm not sure if i will extend 
that in mkii (at some point i will freeze mkii in the sense that no new 
fundamental extensions will take place, only fixes and trivial extensions)

i'm working on a new sectioning mechanisms for mkiv (way more info to be 
carried around) but i need to make sure that it also provides proper 
downward compatibility (such mechanisms are rather interwoven with 
lists, numbering etc)

looks harmless enough to be safe

i hav eno problems with grouped notes in the core, but it need to be 
done differently

- the proposed code assumes an already defined note
- best do this combined with the normal definition

so .. in core-not we then have:

   ....
   ....
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\currentnote}{\setnote[#1]}%
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\currentnote\v!text}{\setnotetext[#1]}%
 
\unexpanded\setvalue{\e!start\currentnote}{\dodoubleempty\dostartcurrentnote[#1]}%
   \unexpanded\setvalue{\e!stop\currentnote}{dostopcurrentnote}}
   \setupnote[\currentnote][#2]}

\def\dostartcurrentnote[#1][#2]%
   {\setnote[#1][#2]\bgroup\ignorespaces}

\def\dostopcurrentnote
   {\removeunwantedspaces\egroup\noteparameter\c!next}
