In sofar as lay out is concerned, I use:
\lettrine{T}{\kap{\bf here is no}} such thing as `digital technology'.
This smoothes the gap between the first character and the normal type.
Automatiing that in terms of \setup will be even harder, I guess. But
then again, if your book has 20 chapters, you only need to do it 20
times ;-)
