Hi ConTeXtans,

\startitemize[text] is a very cool command, but i run frequently into
“Overfull \hbox” errors.

It would be nice if some context magicians would change the ~1em-wide space
in front of the “•” or “(1.)” to scale and compensate the majority of line
width issues. (you can easily chop off or add loads of space to a 1em-space
without making it ugly)

i hope you dig my idea,
Philipp

PS: if somebody doesn’t know how \startitemize[text] looks like; about like
this: „Formen sind • Überspringen von Exons, • Benutzung alternativer 3’-
und 5’-Splice-Stellen, • und alle Kombinationen aus oben genanntem.“ (You’ll
need a proportional Font to see this and gmail and the mailing list need to
conserve the em quad…)
