aligning framedtexts inside framed

aligning framedtexts inside framed

In search of a nice presentation of two passages of text I am trying to put two \framedtext's inside a \framed with their top at the same level. However, I have not been able to accomplish this. Instead they align their bottom.

Example with its result:
\framed[location=top]\bgroup
\hsize=0.5\textwidth
\startframedtext[left][width=0.5\textwidth,location=top]\leavevmode
   some text
\stopframedtext
\startframedtext[left][width=0.5\textwidth,location=top]\leavevmode
   some other text\crlf of more lines
\stopframedtext
\egroup

Changing the location parameter made no difference, introducing an align ruined the placement on the same line.
How do I get the toplines of the inner frames at the same height?

\startframedtext is a text flow command (with before and after and such)

several solutions, here is one:

\starttext

\startframed[strut=no,offset=1ex]%
     \startcombination[nx=2,ny=1,location=top,distance=1ex]
         \startcontent
             \startframed[width=0.5\textwidth,align=normal]%
                some text
             \stopframed
         \stopcontent
         \startcaption \stopcaption
         \startcontent
             \startframed[width=0.5\textwidth,align=normal]%
                 some other text\crlf of more lines
             \stopframed
         \stopcontent
         \startcaption \stopcaption
     \stopcombination
\stopframed

\stoptext
