Act upon as you see fit. well, if something really crashes due to some 'programming' error it's indeed a bug (i tend to add such tests then to the test suite so that it gets checked) other cases depend a bit on how complex it is to deal with it given the tex language, take this one: > %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% > > %% Newline after \placelegend fails > \starttext > \startplacelegend > > \startcontent > Foo > \stopcontent > \startcaption > Bar > \stopcaption > \stopplacelegend > \stoptext If you want that, you also want \starttext \startplacelegend \startcontent Foo Bar \stopcontent \startcaption Bar Foo \stopcaption \stopplacelegend \stoptext That's actually a side effect of how such a mechanism is implemented but in this case it can be catched (at the cost of a bit less efficiency). The problem then is that after a while one wonders why the particular lines of code were there.
