Paragraphs that start with formatting fail to wrap around floats

Paragraphs that start with formatting fail to wrap around floats

[Brian Wedde]

I found what appears to be a bug. I can't find any documentation on it. If i'm doing something wrong, i would really appreciate it if someone would tell me so. Otherwise, please tell me it is a bug so i can stop pulling my hair out. If a paragraph starts with anything but plain text, it will not honor floating objects and will run over them.

Here is an example:

\starttext

\placefigure[right,here]{none}{\framed[width=0.3\textwidth,height=0.3\textwidth]{Floating Thingoid}}

{\bf T}his simple paragraph does not wrap around the floated figure. You can see it starts with a single boldface command.x xxx xxxx xxx x xxxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx x  xx

\bf{T}his paragraph will also not honor the float. It has an alternate form of the boldface command

And yet this paragraph will. It starts with just plain text. xxxx xxx xxxx xxx x xxxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx x.  xxxx xxx xxxx xxx x xxxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx x  xxxx xxx xxxx xxx x xxxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx x  xxxx xxx xxxx xxx x xxxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxx x. 

\stoptext


Any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated.

[and if i'm posting this in the wrong place, please advise. I could not find any info on submitting or reviewing bug reports. ]

Thanks!

when starting with a \bgroup or {, precede it with \dontleavehmode or 
\strut
