Well, it's a bit more complicated: in mkii, sometxt was the easiest  
solution because it was flexible and allowed to include all sorts of  
ConTeXt code. In mkiv, textext can do about anything that sometxt can,  
and then some more, so in mkiv, sometxt was deprecated. But I think  
Mojca has nagged Hans into re-implementing sometxt into mkiv as well.  
Complicated, but there you go...

All best

Thomas
