Thank you very much, Pablo. Here is a modified version:

\setupwhitespace[big]

     \setuphead[section]
         [alternative=margintext,
          color=white,
          style=\tfxx,
          before=,
          after=,
          commandafter={\setupparagraphintro[first]
             [{{\bf \getmarking[sectionnumber][current]
                 \hspace[big]}}]}]

     \setuphead[subsection]
         [commandafter={\setupparagraphintro[first]
             [{{\bf \getmarking[subsectionnumber][current]
                 \hspace[big]}}]}]

     \setuphead[subsubsection]
         [commandafter={\setupparagraphintro[first]
             [{{\bf \getmarking[subsubsectionnumber][current]
                 \hspace[big]}}]}]

     \starttext
     \starttitle[title=Paper]
     \dorecurse{2}{%
     \startsection
     \startpar\input ward\stoppar
     \startparagraph\input ward\stopparagraph

     \startsubsubsection{}
     \startpar\input ward\stoppar
     \stopsubsubsection

     \dorecurse{2}{%
     \startsubsection
     \startpar\input ward\stoppar
     \startparagraph\input ward\stopparagraph

     \dorecurse{2}{%
     \startsubsubsection{}
     \startpar\input ward\stoppar
     \startparagraph\input ward\stopparagraph
     \stopsubsubsection
     }

     \startparagraph{\bf level 2} \input ward\stopparagraph
     \stopsubsection
     }

     \startparagraph{\bf level 1} \input ward\stopparagraph
     \stopsection
     }

     \stoptitle
     \stoptext
Challenges:

1. How can we get automatic indentation for all heads *except* the first  
one that occurs after the \starttitle?

2. Look at the output of the adjusted version above - attached. Note that  
a subsubsection after a section gives

1.1
2.1

which are the same as those given by a subsection after a section. How can  
we get a subsubsection after a section to produce the following?

1.0.1
2.0.1

etc.

Thanks again, Pablo!
