All,
Why is it I cannot get my numbers to abut up against the left margin edge? They are always a few points indented.

It seems that you're reading my mind. I guess that it must be approximately the same reason as why I can't get
Question Q1 Question Q2
With \defineenumeration [question] [text=Question Q] \startquestion Why are there so many spaces? \stopquestion I get Question Q 1 (but I can't find a way to get Q1 as is possible in sections - the space seems to be there by default).
I thought that headcommand=\myquestioncommand (command spotted when I took a look at texshow, it's not in the manual) and \def\myquestioncommand#1{Question Q#1} would solve that, but I don't see any evidence of \myquestioncommand ever being called/executed.
I would be very happy if this issue was solved as well. Perhas a left=,right= pair of keywords could solve the problem (left= and right= surrounding the number; but then we would also have to surround the label with something as well), where the default of left= would be a space. \[whatever]commad= could also solve the problem.
left=Q works. The label is <text><space><left><number><stopper><right>, so this works \defineenumeration [question] [text=Question, left=Q] \starttext \startquestion[abc] Why are there so many spaces in \in[abc]? \stopquestion \stoptext
