Subject: [NTG-context] sidebar and marginrule not working

Dear gang,
The appears to be something wrong with the sidebar and marginrule mechanisms. MWE:
==============
% ConTeXt ver: 2023.09.26 18:19 LMTX
\setupmarginrule[1][rulecolor=darkred]
\definesidebar[Sidebar][rulethickness=0.28pt,distance=3pt,rulecolor=darkgreen]
\setupsidebar[rulecolor=darkgreen]
\starttext
\startmarginrule[1]
\input ward
\stopmarginrule
\blank
\startsidebar[Sidebar]
\input zapf
\stopsidebar
\stoptext
==============
In the output, either
i) the rules do not appear at all (most attempts); or
ii) the rules appear for a split-second then disappear (using sumatrapdf as the viewer, so the pdf updates on the fly).
Is is a bug?
A second question: Is either mechanism preferable over the other? That is: In LMTX, what is the best mechanism to use?
Thank you in advance for any guidance.
Best wishes
