Is there “toffset” option for \setupbackgrounds in context

Is there “toffset” option for \setupbackgrounds in context

I'm trying to learn `context`, and I'm satisfied with their capacities.

I read in  contextgarden
<http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupbackgrounds> that options of
`\setupbackgrounds` inherit from `\setupframed`, but if I setup
`toffset=5mm` for  `\setupbackgrounds[text][text][frame=on,toffset=5mm]` I
have no effect?

With `frameoffset` you can modify the four directions but how about a
single direction?

Code

    \setuppapersize[A4]
    \setuppagenumbering[state=none]

    \setupbackgrounds[text][text][frame=on,toffset=5mm]

    \starttext

    \input knuth


    \stoptext

The background mechanism for the text areas supports only a fraction of 
the normal framed options but you can do a lot when you use Metapost to 
draw the background.

\startuniqueMPgraphic{TextBackground}
     path p ; p := unitsquare xscaled OverlayWidth yscaled OverlayHeight ;
     draw p topenlarged 5mm ;
     setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ;
\stopuniqueMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[TextBackground][\uniqueMPgraphic{TextBackground}]

\setuppapersize[A4]
\setuppagenumbering[state=none]

\setupbackgrounds[text][text][background=TextBackground]

\starttext

\input knuth

\stoptext

BTW: It’s rude to crosspost without mentioning this
