Fullwidth topfigure with caption in the margin

Fullwidth topfigure with caption in the margin

Hi,

Is there a way to have a fullwith topfigure with caption in the margin so
that the figure does not interfere with the text? My try is


%%%%%%%
\setuplayout[
rightmargin=2in,
rightmargindistance=0.375in,
width=4.125in,
]

\showframe

\definecolor [transparentred] [r=1,t=.5,a=1]

\definefloat[topfigure][topfigures][figure]

\setupfloat[topfigure][
default={margin},
location=flushleft,
maxwidth=6.5in,
]

\setupcaption[topfigure][
number=no,
location=bottom,
style={\switchtobodyfont[8bp]},
]
\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\samplefile{knuth}}

\startplacetopfigure[title={\samplefile{ward}}]
\blackrule[width=6.5in,height=2in,color=transparentred]
\stopplacetopfigure

\samplefile{knuth}
\stoptext
%%%%%%

but, as one can see on page two, the text from the previous page just
continues under the image. I want the "larg-scale user..." to start below
the image. It would be good if it was also possible to configure the
distance between the image and the text.

(I guess one option would be to not use a margin figure, and use
default=top, but then I don't know how to handle the caption.)

An update: I am now able to get something closer to what I want. The figure
is where I want it, the caption is where I want it. The code might be bad
and there might be better ways to do it. For example, I could not find how
to use the title text but only the subtitle in the figure. The spacing is
also a bit manual in the \TopFigureCaption command. Any comments for
improvements (or completely different solutions) are very welcome.
