Hi,
again, testing the new ConTeXt with "old" documents, I noticed
that
\definedescription[Desc]
[headstyle=italic,
before=,after=,
margin=2\parindent,
width=15em]
doesn't work in the new ConTeXt, while it worked in the old one
(the new one causes a "missing \endcsname" error).

Uh-ho. I forgot to say that the breaking part is
"margin=2\parindent"; using "marign=2em" or any other explicit
skip specification works.

Solved,
\def\dosetleftskipadaption#1%
{\edef\ascii{@lsa@#1}%
\convertcommand\ascii\to\ascii
\leftskipadaption
\ifcsname\ascii\endcsname
\csname\ascii\endcsname
