does

\startsetups[mypenalties]
      \setdefaultpenalties
      \setpenalties\widowpenalties{2}{10000}
      \setpenalties\clubpenalties {2}{10000}
\stopsetups

work? this [grid] was only used for this case and has been dropped in 
favour of more powerful par passes and specification definitions

this setup approach was also sensitive for order

We now have so call \specificationdef's that work as shown below:

\starttext

\showmakeup[vpenalty]

\specificationdef \MyWidowPenalties \widowpenalties 3 10000 10000 0
\specificationdef \MyClubPenalties  \clubpenalties  3 10000 10000 0

{ \samplefile {tufte} } \page

{ \MyWidowPenalties \MyClubPenalties  \samplefile {tufte} }  \page

{ \lesswidowpenalties \lessclubpenalties  \samplefile {tufte} }  \page

{ \setupalign[lesswidows,lessclubs,lessorphans] \samplefile {tufte} }  \page

\stoptext

predefined new alignment keys are:

defaultwidows defaultclubs defaultbroken

lesswidows lessclubs lessbroken

lessorphans lessorphans:2 lessorphans:3 lessorphans:4

strictwidows strictwidows:2 strictwidows:3 strictwidows:4
strictclubs  strictclubs:2  strictclubs:3  strictclubs:4

strictbroken

so a 'global' setupalign can be used
