Well, obviously I interpreted the use of \V!-macros wrong.
I understood it being the ConTeXt way of making command strings
language independent, as in for example.
\c!corner=\v!rectangular
Using code like this in a setup-getparameters combination.
The article "Context System macros part1" provided the inspiration (example on page 11). Since I am adapting
an old plaintex -> latex macro pack now -> context I thought it handy
to put in that independence, as seems to come for free. Clearly I am not grasping the real meaning. Will you enlighten me? If
it doesn't takes to much of your time to explain.

This gives an error: \setupframed[frame=\v!off,strut=\v!no, ...
The same happens with \v!on as parameter. In both cases the use of the \v! prefix is wrong (the strut=\v!no
will not be obeyed), but only one of the two results in an error,
because context handles some parameters differently from other
parameters. Cheers, Taco yours sincerely,
