Muchas gracias Pablo, that was most helpful, and of course it works.
The particular part that I was missing (there was already
alternative=doublesided in the preamble) of course was the
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart], so thanks for highlighting that.
I was also a bit confused about the difference between state=repeat and
repeat=yes, and I can see that both do work in the snippet you gave me,
so perhaps there is no difference between these?
