i don’t know if it’s a TikZ or a ConTeXt bug, but with the newest mkiv beta installed with mtx-update.lua, tikz fails when using the option “text badly centered” in combination with “text width”:
\usemodule[tikz]
\starttext
\tikz\node[text badly centered, text width=1cm]{fail};
\stoptext
gives:
\tikz@text@action ...p =0pt\rightskip \@flushglue
\leftskip \@flushglue \relax
...
as it doesn’t occur with LaTeX, i think it might be a ConteXt bug.
