There was a thread about columns and whitespace ~ 2 weeks ago, but I wasn't
a subscriber then. I've just come across it independently myself. I'm not
sure what conclusion was come to. From a few tests, I'd characterize the
problem code in \startcolumns as: "if whitespace has been set to more than
none, set whitespace to 'line'."
Try it by uncommenting various lines:
%\setupwhitespace[none]
%\setupwhitespace[small]
\starttext
\startcolumns[n=2]
%\setupwhitespace[small]
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
Do people agree with that characterization; has the bug been found; what's
being done about it? I don't want to have to re-setup whitespace every time
I go to columns.

ConTeXt does this to keep the lines on the grid.
\setupwhitespace[medium]
\starttext
\startcolumns
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
\startcolumns[blank=medium]
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
\stoptext

\startcolumns[n=2,blank=medium]
\input knuth
\stopcolumns
it's not a bug as by default columns are set up with
blank={line,fixed}
this has always been the case; as columns can be mixed with no columns
we want the lines to align

Hallo,
is it possible to get a half line space after paragraphs in columns?
The default is no space. And
\setupwhitespace[small]
produces a whole line of space.
Wolfgang
