Hi,
\starttext
\quotation{\type{\CONTEXT\ }}
\stoptext
gives
“\CONTEXT \”
i.e. the space moved. Why? Bug?

no, side effect of catcodes ... when you use \type it will change
catcodes (sort of) and when tex serializes a \cs it will add a space
(ok, it could remove it as it progresses but that's now how tex works)
when you pass \type as argument there is no catcode juggling but you can
cheat
\def\foo#1{#1}
\foo{\type[compact=all]{\test\test\test}}
should work but i noticesd only for simple cases so i'll adapt it a bit
(after all, it's off by default)
naybe when i'm bored i'll cook up something else (at the engine level
that is)
