I am using context to generate some (mostly multiple choice) exams, which are
nested lists. My problem is that I'm sometimes having the questions (the
top-level list items) split from the answers (the secondary list items) across
page boundaries. Is there some way to resolve this so that list items always
remain with the parent?

Bruce

\startitemize[intro]

Is that supposed to be on the parent list, the child list, or both?

In any case, it does help a bit, but there are still few split lists. 

I take it there's not much else I can do?

Thanks,
Bruce
