Dear list,

while \widowpenalty is respected in conventional columns, inside or 
outside \startmixedcolumns and \stopmixedcolumns, it is ignored. How can 
I make ConTeXt avoid widows in mixedcolumns?

(I can't use conventional columns, some things like distance=... don't 
work there.)

Thank you,
Joshua Krämer

MWE:

\starttext

\startmixedcolumns
%\startcolumns

\widowpenalty10000

\dorecurse{290}{word }

\dorecurse{250}{second }

\stopmixedcolumns
%\stopcolumns

\stoptext
