How could a BNF grammar help to learn ConTeXt, it did not explain
what a environment do and where is the advantage to ConTeXt's own
command explanations with the information which arguments are
optional and what keys and values a command takes.
In a recent MkIV you even have the option to enable
a key-val-checkers which mention invalid keys on the terminal.
I have no problems to be corrected when I'm wrong or missing something.
