Is there a better way? Sorry to say, but in this case, no solution would be much better than this solution. There is nothing(!) worse than mixing visual markup with logical markup this way. We are in a fully programmable environment, and it is extremely unConTeXtish to hack the visual appearance. If I have some minutes off tonight, I'll look into it. But I'd guess that Hans already has several different solutions to this problem, because every time I write "no solution yet" on this mailinglist, Hans presents some unknown/forgotten secret.
