Flowfram-like behavior?

Is there a way to get behavior like flowfram using ConTeXt?  Specifically, I
mean the ability to define a set of "frames" or boxes, possibly several on a
page or across a series of pages, and have the text automatically flow from
one box to another in a prescribed order?

I'm interested in doing InDesign-like layouts, which might have multiple
"stories", each of which can flow across multiple frames on multiple pages.
Using flowfram with LaTeX comes pretty close (though only one story can flow
from frame to frame), but there are conflicts with the longtable package and
potentially others.  I figured since one of the goals of ConTeXt (as I
understand it) was to avoid inter-package conflicts, perhaps this would
offer a better solution.

Thank you.
