What is the proper way to delimit paragraphs within an itemized list
using \start..\stop tagging (as for epub and such)? When I wrap
paragraphs with \startparagraph..\stopparagraph within the
\startitem..\stopitem, there is an unwanted newline inserted between the
bullet and the item text.
Or, is it not recommend to wrap paragraphs that are in enumerations?
I ask because http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Epub_Sample suggests “Make
sure to tag all your structural elements with \start...-\stop..., e.g.
\startchapter, but even \startparagraph!” I also note the appearance of
\startcontent..\stopcontent and \stopcaption..\startcaption and such,
suggesting to me that semantic tagging may be a useful thing to add to
new documents in order to support new output formats.
\starttext
   \startitemize
      \startitem
        \startparagraph
          Item one paragraph one.
        \stopparagraph
        \startparagraph
          Item one paragraph two.
        \stopparagraph
        \startparagraph
          Item one paragraph three.
        \stopparagraph
      \stopitem
      \startitem
        \startparagraph
          Item two paragraph one.
        \stopparagraph
        \startparagraph
          Item two paragraph two.
        \stopparagraph
        \startparagraph
          Item two paragraph three.
        \stopparagraph
      \stopitem
   \stopitemize
\starttext
\startitemize
 \startitem
   \bpar
     Item one paragraph one.
   \epar % \stopparagraph
   \bpar
     Item one paragraph two.
   \epar
   \bpar
     Item one paragraph three.
   \epar
 \stopitem
 \startitem
   \bpar
     Item two paragraph one.
   \epar
   \bpar
     Item two paragraph two.
   \epar
   \bpar

Thank you, Hans, for that.
Can you explain when \startparagraph..\stopparagraph should be preferred for tagging, and when \bpar..\epar? There is clearly a difference between them.
\starttext

The \tex{bpar} and \tex{epar} commands only add tags for the begin and end
of the paragraph in the exported content:

\startitemize
  \startitem
    \input ward
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    \bpar \input ward \epar
  \stopitem
\stopitemize

When you use the \tex{startparagraph} and \tex{stopparagraph} commands \CONTEXT\
forces the end of the previous paragraph before it add the tags for the export:

\startitemize
  \startitem
    \par \input ward \par
  \stopitem
  \startitem
    \startparagraph \input ward \stopparagraph
  \stopitem
\stopitemize

\stoptext
...
Is there any setup associated with \bpar..\epar as there is \defineparagraph for \startparagraph..\stopparagraph?
No, the commands add only the tags when you use the export function.
