Here's the project I'm compiling (as it currently stands), condensed
into a single file:

\definepapersize[sixbynine][width=6in,height=9in]
\setuppapersize[sixbynine][letter]
\setuplayout
	[marking=on, location=middle,
	textwidth=288pt, textheight=432pt,
	header=12pt, headerdistance=12pt, topspace=72pt,
	footer=12pt, footerdistance=12pt, bottomspace=144pt,
	leftmargindistance=12pt, leftmargin=24pt, backspace=48pt,
	rightmargindistance=12pt, rightmargin=24pt]
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\showframe
\starttext
\title{Preface}
A few paragraphs of {\em Lorem ipsum} text.
\stoptext

The center rectangle, surrounding the text area, seems to have its
left & right margins some distance from the actual text.  How do I set
that distance, and why is it different from the leftmargindistance?
