I'm trying something out in LMTX, which is to combine itemize with a table. Application could be to put a question and the answer in the next column.

A minimal example would be:

\starttext
\startitemize [a] [right=),stopper=]
    \bTABLE[frame=off]
      \setupTABLE[column][1] [width=.3\textwidth]
      \setupTABLE[column][2] [width=.6\textwidth]
        \bTR
          \bTD \item Something \eTD
          \bTD Something \eTD
        \eTR
        \bTR
          \bTD \item Something \eTD
          \bTD Something \eTD
        \eTR
        \bTR
          \bTD \item Something \eTD
          \bTD Something \eTD
        \eTR
        \bTR
          \bTD \item Something \eTD
          \bTD Something \eTD
        \eTR
    \eTABLE

\stopitemize
\stoptext

The numbering unfortunately starts with i) instead of a). Any recommendation which approach shall be preferred?

Thanks in advance!
