As Peter Münster noted: in the following test-file

\starttext

x. x, x x\crlf

x, x. x x\crlf

x,\ x.\ x\ x\crlf

x.\ x,\ x\ x\crlf

X. X, X X\crlf

X, X. X X\crlf

X,\ X.\ X\ X\crlf

X.\ X,\ X\ X

\stoptext

you see 2 bugs:

- in MKIV there is no bigger space after "x."

- in MKII the space after "x.\ " is a big one

The problem remains in ConTeXt  ver: 2008.07.31 16:30 for MKII (which  

I am using). I am do not know if here have been any changes in MKIV.

Is there a fix for this in the works?  I am about to publish a series  

of pages which will look vastly better if this is fixed.
