We basically need: <text><glue min-width='XX' max-width='hsize-3*indent'>
and I thought this is exactly what \parfillskip ensures \parfillskip XX plus (hsize - 3*indent)
the fil is taken into account when calculating the best break points and then the XX is fixed but plus/minus can lead to if being less or more, all relative to other fill (distributed)
so, XX plus (hsize - 3*indent) is not a fixed value, it's XX or more
take this:
\ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip0pt plus 1cm x}
the skip will stretch more than 1cm
I can see.
But sorry for my ignorance, as far as I understand, \parfillskip is added to the end of the paragraph, so we have rather \ruledhbox to 10cm {x\hskip0pt plus 1cm} % without that 'x' at the end, so no 'glue' distribution is performed
If '\parfillskip 2em plus (hsize - 3*(2em) - 2em)' is specified, I still think we should get space of width at least 2em '####' which can be extended as indicated by hyphens '-' here:
emememememememememememememememememememem emememememem------------------------####
So there are two last line lengths extrems: (shortest) emememememememememememememememememememem emememememem
(longest) emememememememememememememememememememem emememememememememememememememememem
I slightly modified your example and even with verystrict settings all seems to be fine (except too narrow blocks, which is not my use case).
\showmakeup[glue]
\setupindenting[yes,2em]
\edef\ward{\cldloadfile{ward}}
\setupalign[verystrict,hz]
\starttext \dorecurse{100}{ \hsize\dimexpr\textwidth-#1mm\relax \dimen0=\hsize \advance\dimen0 by -8em % 3*em - 2em \parfillskip 2em plus \dimen0\relax \ward \par \parfillskip 2em plus \dimen0\relax \ward \par \startnarrower[left] \parfillskip 2em plus \dimen0\relax \ward \par \stopnarrower \startnarrower[left] \parfillskip 2em plus \dimen0\relax \ward \par \stopnarrower \page } \stoptext
The problem here this settings cannot be done globally if there are various block widths.
Can I somehow define command globally which takes local block widths?
\parfillskip #1 plus \localhsize-#1-#2, where #1 gap width #2 shortest line width
As expected, results are on the average worse than an occasional relatively short last line.
