I was trying out line breaks for long titles (at least, long when set in
36 or 48pt text), as well as have pdf bookmarks, so I defined a \1
shorthand local to the chapter heading:

======================================================================
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\placebookmarks[chapter]
\setupinteractionscreen[option=bookmark]

\setuphead[chapter][before={\bgroup\def\1{\hfil\break}}, after={\egroup}]

\starttext
\chapter{Long\1 title}
hello

\stoptext
======================================================================

If I inline the \1, as in \chapter{Long\hfil\break title}, then it's
mostly fine except that the bookmark has "hfil penalty ..."  Is there's
another way to avoid that problem?  Perhaps a magic option that says
what the bookmark should be, the way one can tell \index what to typeset
in the index when it is different from the inline text.

One solution is to forbid hyphens during the \chapter (with before= and
after= definitions) and also shrink the \hsize enough so that tex line
breaks where I want, but that method requires unintuitive,
fontsize-dependent dimension guessing for each chapter.  Putting in line
breaks by hand is not too bad.  Plus one might want to break the lines
according to meaning, which does not always produce the same results as
where breaks would go according to line length.

But meanwhile trying the hack method above, I get this error

 (./q.tuo) (./q.tuo)
 ! Undefined control sequence.

		    \setupinteractionscreen

			    [option=bookmark]

It's from this line in q.tuo

  \listentry{chapter}{1}{1}{Long\1 title}{2--0-1-0-0-0-0-0--1}{1}

and the \1 is not defined during \listentry, only during the \chapter.

I didn't have a problem when the same code was part of a product (each
component being chapter in a book, with the \setuphead in an environment
file) -- only had it when I compiled one component, which is how I got
to the test case above.
