Is this also the right approach to check for the current page within a 
float placement?
Like
\startplacefigure[]
	\dontleavehmode\signalrightpage % necessary?
	\doifelserightpage{RIGHT}{LEFT}
	\doifelseoddpage  {ODD  }{EVEN}
\stopplacefigure
?

In my macros from 2015 I’m still using manual right/left page versions, 
and I’d like to enhance them.
I need e.g. different \offset values for \externalfigure depending on 
right/left page.
