The following example fails to compile, complaining "Missing { inserted."

It compiles cleanly  if one or more of the three marked lines are removed.

This is the case with TL2013 and with recent standalone beta versions. I 
do not know if it ever worked.

    \setuplayout [grid=yes]%                            line one
    \definetextbackground[TB][
                      topoffset=.25em,bottomoffset=.25em,% line two
                      location=paragraph,%                 line three
                     ]
    \starttext
    \startTB
       prisca iuvent alios ego me nunc denique natum gratulor: haec
       aetas moribus apta meis.
    \stopTB
    \stoptext

Sorry for the noise. It needs alternative= instead of location= in the 
textbackground definition.

Where can we find the command description?

Perhaps I retracted too quickly. The background is not placed with 
alternative=paragraph. It looks like all I did using that was to remove 
one of the three problem lines.

To be clear, this is an issue with MKIV.

The first example works.

First, thank you for pointing to the documentation.

Second, the first example works as presented, but fails when the line

    \setuplayout[grid=yes]

is added and it is run (with MKIV). It can be made to work by removing 
either that line or one of the following two lines.

    location=paragraph,
    topoffset=.5\bodyfontsize,bottomoffset=.5\bodyfontsize,

That is my complaint.
