Sadly, *\framedtext* still appears to have a problem with the default 
width, although with today's update one can now explicitly set the 
width. (Nothing I can find in the docs suggests that *\framedtext* has a 
different default width than *\framed*. Perhaps I missed it.)

New overwrought example:

    \definelayer      [HRule]
    [x=0mm,y=0pt,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight]
    \setlayer         [HRule]
                       [hoffset=0pt,voffset=10em]
    {\blackrule[color=green,height=1pt,width=10cm]}
    %setupframedtext  [offset=0pt]
    \definelayer      [VRule]
    [x=0mm,y=0pt,width=\textwidth,height=\textheight]
    \setlayer         [VRule]
                       [hoffset=0.75\textwidth,voffset=0pt]
                       {\blackrule[color=red,height=10em,width=1pt]}
    \setupbackgrounds [text]
                       [background={HRule,VRule}]
    \setupframedtext  [offset=0pt]
    \starttext
    \framed{default width for \tex{framed} is {\tt fit}}\par
    \framedtext{default width for \tex{framedtext} is not {\tt fit}. It
    appears to be 0.75\tex{textwidth}}\par
    \framedtext[width=10cm]{explicit width for \tex{framedtext} now
    works}\par
    \framedtext[width=fit]{{\tt fit} width for \tex{framedtext} now
    works}\par
    \stoptext
