Dear gang,

mtx-context     | current version: 2018.06.24 18:28

In the attached and below, we want sectioning numbers placed and naturally  
aligned in the margin:

=======
\definecombinedlist % \setuplist[]
[content]
[section]
[level=section,
alternative=c,
criterium=local]

\setuphead[section][alternative=inmargin]
\setupitemize[1][inmargin][stopper=]

\placecontent

\starttext
\startsection[title= First]
\input ward
\stopsection
\startsection[title= Second]
\startitemize[r]
\startitem[] \input ward \stopitem
\startitem[] \input ward \stopitem
\stopitemize
\stopsection
\stoptext
=======

1. What is the most straightforward way to to the section numerals  
generated by \placecontent placed and aligned inmargin?

2. Oddity: Why does the TOC in the attached example default to a  
monospaced font?

Thanks in advance.

Best wishes
Idris
