When stupidity strikes, no one's safe. Turns out \setupbackgrounds has an option called backgroundoffset, and this is the solution. The not colorized part was the bleed part of the document, so the background command would be: \setupbackgrounds [paper] [ background=color, backgroundcolor=blue, backgroundoffset=\measured{bleed} ] wonder if this would be handy in the DIN lang folder template in the wiki, as most such brochures will supposingly have a colored background...?

Here's the example. It's basically the code from DIN Lang Folder in the Wiki plus a setupbackgrounds command. It works with `page` but fails to work with `paper`:
%% This is a template for a Din lang Folder. %% The folded page of such a flyer is shorter (97mm) than the other pages (100mm)
%% This measure shows how much shorter the folded page is. \definemeasure [shortfold] [3mm]
%% The bleed measure is necessary if you have colored page backgrounds %% or images in the bleed. %% Different print shops need different bleeds. \definemeasure [bleed] [1mm]
%% This is the pagesize of the final PDF. %% The bleed size is added two times to width and height. \definepapersize [A4-flyer] [width=\dimexpr297mm+2\measured{bleed}\relax, height=\dimexpr210mm+2\measured{bleed}\relax]
%% The size of a normal page. \definepapersize [flyer-page] [width=100mm, height=210mm]
%% The size of the folded page. \definepapersize [flyer-page-small] [width=\dimexpr100mm-\measure{shortfold}\relax, height=210mm]
%% Imposition: With the following two commands we arrange the six pages %% on the final PDF print sheet.
%% The flyerpages are imposed on the printed sheet. \setuppapersize [flyer-page] [A4-flyer]
%% The pages are arranged as a tryptichon. \setuparranging [TRYPTICHON]
%% Because of the shorter folded page and the bleed the pages has %% to be shifted horizontally on the printed sheet. %% The values are calculated here. \definepageshift [flyer] [horizontal] [\dimexpr\measure{bleed}-\measured{shortfold}\relax, \measure{bleed}, \measure{bleed}, \dimexpr2\measured{shortfold}+\measured{bleed}\relax, \measure{bleed}, \dimexpr\measure{bleed}-\measured{shortfold}\relax ]
%% The vertical pageshift is simple. \definepageshift [flyer] [vertical] [\measure{bleed}]
\setuppageshift [paper] [flyer]
%% We define some measures to construct the page layout. \definemeasure [small] [3mm]
\definemeasure [big] [\measure{small}*2]
%% Each page has a slightly different page layout. %% The named layouts (1. bracket) inherit values from other layouts %% which are assigned in the second bracket. \definelayout [first] [page] [page=flyer-page, topspace=2\measured{big}, backspace=2\measured{small}, width=\dimexpr\paperwidth-4\measured{small}\relax, height=\dimexpr\paperheight-4\measured{big}\relax]
\definelayout [second] [first] [topspace=2\measured{big}, backspace=2\measured{small}, width=\dimexpr\paperwidth-2\measured{big}\relax]
\definelayout [thirdandfourth] [second] [backspace=\measure{big}, width=\dimexpr\paperwidth-2\measured{big}\relax]
\definelayout [fifthandsixth] [first] [backspace=\measure{big}, width=\dimexpr\paperwidth-2\measured{big}\relax]
%% We assign the layouts to the pages. \definelayout [1] [first] \definelayout [2] [second] \definelayout [3] [thirdandfourth] \definelayout [4] [thirdandfourth] \definelayout [5] [fifthandsixth] \definelayout [6] [fifthandsixth]
%% Some setups \setupmakeup [doublesided=no] \setuptolerance [verytolerant]
%% We want to see page and layout borders. %% COMMENT THIS OUT BEFORE YOU PRINT! \showframe
