Hi there!
I have a feature request (or a question "how to do it";)) concerning itemizations. Currently, they are much like LaTeX (say, with the enumitem package). I think this is not the best idea. I can hardly imagine using more than two levels of itemize in my documents; on the other hand, I like to introduce different "kinds" of itemize on the _first_ level. Imagine I'm typesetting a paper on mathematics (which I'm doing all the time;)). I want another kind of itemize for lists of: * equivalent conditions (as in: "the following are equivalent: ..."); * statements connected by an "or" clause (as in: "at least one of these holds: ..."; * statements connected by an "and" clause (as in: "assume that these conditions are satisfied: ...").
What I usually do (in LaTeX) is to define a few environments, like "equivenumerate", "orenumerate", "andenumerate" etc., and make them use (a), (b), ..., (i), (ii), ..., or (1), (2), ... respectively. This way I have a clear visual clue in my papers on what's going where, and on the other hand, I separate content and presentation.
Would it be possible in ConTeXt? If yes, how to do this? Maybe it's worth mentioning in the new manual?
(As usual, I'll try to post the answer on the wiki when I have some spare time!)
