You can use the = to align keys and values, e.g.
\setuplayout
[backspace=2.5cm,
margin=0.5cm,
width=16cm,
header=1cm,
footer=1cm]
Another useful method is to put large settings into a setups-blocks and
pass the block to a setup-command.
\startsetups [apage]
\startMPcode
StartPage;
...
StopPage;
\stopMPcode
\stopsetups
\defineoverlay[apage][\directsetup{apage}]
