[NTG-context] \setupwhitespace and Natural Table paragraphs

17 Aug 2015

      I am trying to find the most effective way of changing paragraph spacing 
for paragraphs inside table cells, without resorting to explicit \blank 
directives.

Here is a MWE to show what I mean.  Outside of the table, the paragraph 
spacing seems to honour the \setupwhitespace directive.  Not so inside 
the table.  Curiously, though, the default enumeration inside the table 
*does* seem to honour \setupwhitespace, which you can affect using the 
before, after and inbetween options, as shown in the commented 
\startitemize line.
