For the book I'm currently typesetting, I had to disable expansion for the entire document because it messed up spacing with Greek letters and certain accents. Now the question is the other way round: can I enable expansion only for certain passages? I'm in the final revision, and expansion would help me take care of a few overfull hboxes. But while setting \setupalign[hanging,hz] for the entire document does take care of those, doing something like

The paragraph has to end before the group is closed.

\definefontfeature[default][default][expansion=quality,protrusion=quality]

\starttext \showframe

\input tufte

\blank

\start
\setupalign[hanging,hz]
\input tufte
\stop

\blank

\start
\setupalign[hanging,hz]
\input tufte\par
\stop

\stoptext
