Thanks a lot Wolfgang!

This was just the thing I was looking for. These setups seems to be the
golden bullet in ConTeXt but I often have difficulties to understand the
mechanism.

I'll try to wikify this later this week.

The push-pop-background pair is mentionend in x-setups-overview together
with some other push-pop-pairs or push single commands. Are they
documented somewhere?
