You may want to have a look at my xdesc module (eXtended
DESCriptions). It is still work in-progress and available at
http://digilander.iol.it/bilotta/giuseppe/xdesc.zip

Note that there is a patched TeXUtil there, and it must be used to
replace the one coming with ConTeXt itself.

If you need any info, feel free to express your questions doubts
and suggestions on the mailing list.
