Has any progress been made in the past few years implementing modifiable separators for captions under MKIV? This was raised as an issue by (at least) Mojca Miklavec in December 2010 (http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context%40ntg.nl/msg51542.html) and by Andy Thomas 18 months later (http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context%40ntg.nl/msg63937.html). (Their issues with stopper have been resolved. In MKIV it is numberstopper.)

Here is an MWE demonstrating the problem. It compiles cleanly, but the separator remains the default period. With MKII, it generates a figure with a hyphen and not a period.
\setupcaptions[separator=-]
\setupcaptions[prefixconnector=-]

As always, thank you.

I have updated the wiki page for setupcaptions. The updated includes a reworded description of the suffix key and new descriptions for the stopper/numberstopper and separator/prefixconnector keys.

(There are many other keys that are not documented, and a few at least that differ between MKII and MKIV, but I do not have the time at the moment to test all of them.)
