Hello,

is this maybe not possible with activated grid? Or is my question just not clear:

\setuplayout[grid=yes]
\showgrid
\starttext
\dorecurse{779}{test }\footnote{Just a footnote. Wants to stay on this 
page without forcing the last line of the first page to move on this 
page (the 41rd line of the first page is now empty, but it should not). 
So the reference of the footnote and the foonote itself would be on 
different pages, but that would be ok. Is that possible?}
\stoptext

Thanks.
