maybe

\starttexdefinition protected newintertext #1
     \leftparbox [global] {
         \vadjust pre \bgroup
             \forgetall
             \vskip.5\strutdp % needs to be more clever in the end
             \dontleavehmode\vtop\bgroup
                 #1
             \egroup
         \egroup
     }
     \breakhere
\stoptexdefinition

but i need to discuss it with Mikael as we might integrate something 
better and then it needs to be documented (in the upcoming manual) as well
