\placetable vs. \placefloat and option "none"

Hello, (– resending now without resulting .pdf to avoid attachment size limit –) option "none" has different effect with \placetable and \placefloat. No problem with this, but as I thought both commands raise from the same code (or more precisely: I thought that \placetable is special case (specialization) of \placefloat), I'm a bit surprised that \placefloat[none] keeps caption whilst \placetable[none] supresses it. See the sample: ---- \setupexternalfigures[location=default] \starttext \placetable[force,none]{}{\externalfigure[cow]} % [1] \placefloat[force,none]{}{\externalfigure[cow]} \stoptext ---- (I'm aware that I'm placing \externalfigure into \placetable in [1] - does it matter?) - Also relates here: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/placefloat . Best regards, Lukas

The \placefloat command expects the name of the float instance as first argument, e.g. \placefloat[table]. Wolfgang
