Can anyone suggest a fix for this, or declare that there is nothing that
can be done except to change the page content? It is still a problem.
The problem is not with caption space /per se/, but with the space taken
for the figure as a whole. I would think that, once the page with the
figure is finalized, additional reserved whitespace below it can be
discarded.
I did notice that it was also raised without apparent resolution in
March 2007 (http://www.mail-archive.com/ntg-context%40ntg.nl/msg21269.html).
