gobbling space after "]"

gobbling space after "]"

[Peter Münster]

Hello,

IMHO space should be gobbled after \startmode[...], and it should *not* be
gobbled after \externalfigure[...].

But ConTeXt does it the other way round:

\enablemode[test]
\starttext
bla
\startmode[test]
text for test-mode
\stopmode
bla \externalfigure[hacker][width=3em] bla\blank[big]
Now with workarounds:\blank[big]
bla
\startmode[test]%
text for test-mode
\stopmode
bla \externalfigure[hacker][width=3em]\ bla
\stoptext

What do you think?

Cheers, Peter

often spaces after ] are gobbled, which has to do with the fact that 
there can be (in this case) a third optional argument
