The following gets me close to what I am looking for. Adding
\setupinterlinespace[1pt] seems to suppress the addition of space between
the lines of the header. Changing the interlinespace only seems to have an
effect above some threshold related to the font size. For example, changing
1pt to 3pt has no visible effect. Changing 1pt to 10pt adds space between
the first and second lines only. Changing 1pt to 100pt adds space between
lines 1/2 and 2/3. I would prefer to have precise control over the space
between the lines, but I can live with this (it is much better than the
large spaces which appear of you remove the \setupinterlinespace
declarations).
This still leaves the problem of calculating the header height provided in
\setuplayout so that body text is a set distance from the header for
arbitrary font size, number of lines, and text contained in the header.
Thanks, Neal

{\switchtobodyfont[10.00pt]\setupinterlinespace[1pt]
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee\par}
{\switchtobodyfont[24.00pt]\setupinterlinespace[1pt]
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee\par}}}}
\setupheadertexts[\headerframe][]
This is the body text.

What is the best way to obtain precise control over the space between lines in a multi-line running header. I need to be able to set the font size within each line by point size. Different lines may have different font sizes (indeed, there may be different font sizes within a single line).
I've tried a number of approaches but always seem to end up with unexpected white space somewhere.
if you want an answer you need to provide a minimal example showing the problem
