Does ConTeXt have a command to create a (non framed) box from a line of text, where the text is typeset as a paragraph inside a box of certain size?

Gerben,
did you think about using \framedtext, setting the frame off?

You can always fall back to plain tex, but I think that the \framed...

\starttext
\vbox{\hsize 3cm \input ward\relax}
\stoptext
