I tried similar examples from the manual and these fail even more badly:

\chapter{Influences \nomarking{in the 20th century:} an introduction}
\chapter{Influences in the 20th century\nolist{: an introduction}}

The macros on page 204 give \nomarking and \nolist as undefined macros! Both in \chapter{} as in \startchapter[title={}] form.

What can be hapening here?

I tried to put the sectionnumbers in the margin, but it didn't work. The I looked at the example in the ConTeXt Reference Manual and this didn't work either. Why?
See the minimal example below where the manual is contrasted with the actual output.
