I continued considering the solution to the problem of using *fleurons* in a document via the suggested *\leaders* command and it turned out to be a dead end for the following reasons:
1) it acts wrongly if the page in which the *fleuron* is to appear has a lot of blank space availabe, as the following test code demonstrates:
\setuplayout[lines=30]
\def\Fleuron {\par \leaders\vbox to \lineheight{\midaligned{Finis\\coronat\\opus}}\vfil} \starttext
\dorecurse{32}{Line \recurselevel\par}
\Fleuron
\stoptext
where the intended *fleuron* appears superposed several times instead of the only one desired; You can avoid this when you limit the space for the leaders command.
