I think that the advice of omitting the file extension given in most LaTeX introductions is more trouble than it is worth in ConTeXt. Omitting file extensions is important if you are generating both dvi and pdf outputs. In ConTeXt, one never uses the DVI output, so I think that one should ALWAYS specify the file extension. That removes a lot of headaches with the wrong file being sourced.
I agree with you on that one. However, I think it's unexpected that files from the texmf-modules/doc directory are included by default. Hasn't it been made more strict some time ago? Why does this still work (or better: fail): %% \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \externalfigure[test] \stoptext Marco
