Say I have ten items in the table and I need to group Item 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6 and so on. Due to the description being quite lengthy in some cases, I would like to use some sort of horizontal rule between items. It seems I have to following options:

Use the optional argument for \HL or \HR, the number controls the thickness of the rule, the keywords are color names.
\starttext
\starttabulate[|l|l|]
\HR[4]
\NC Cell 1 \NC Cell 2 \NC\NR
\HL[green]
\NC Cell 3 \NC Cell 4 \NC\NR
\HL[2,blue]
\stoptabulate
\stoptext
