Hi,

2) is it a question that has not yet been documented? Say for

let's make sure of that; i uploaded a beta version that permits usage of 
before/after, although with some limitations; i hope that this change 
(extension) does not break existing code

%D Although it is far better to use backgrounds for this
%D purpose, one can add a rule in the following way. This
%D method makes the rules disappear in case of an empty text
%D line. Consider this a feature.
%D
%D \starttypen
%D \setupheadertexts[left][right]
%D
%D \setupheader[text][after=\hrule,style=bold]
%D
%D \starttext
%D   \input tufte \page
%D   \setupheader[state=empty]
%D   \input tufte \page
%D \stoptext
%D \stoptypen
