Hi,
when asciimode is enabled the \type command ignores double comment symbols.
\starttext
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
\asciimode
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
\stoptext
Wolfgang

It's actually a feature: in ascimode double % is the comment and content
is preprocessed. originally asciimode was just for math and we still
wanted a way to have comments.
But ... we can have
\unexpanded\def\literalmode{\setcatcodetable\txtcatcodes}
and then:
\starttext
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
\literalmode
\quotation{\type{%}}
\quotation{\type{%%}}
test 10% test
\stoptext
I'll add that command, assuming that someone will document it somewhere.

I can't remember the details when the command was added (I know there
was \nonknuthmode) but in this example it works in a unexpected way (the
% are removed but the following text is kept).
There is no need for \asciimode in my document but I use it sometimes
when I have symbols I don't want to replace.

Not really needed in this case but I'm going to document it.

It's a side effect of buffers: each \type ends up in a buffer and that
actually is a file on its own.
