[NTG-context] Protruding quotation marks obviate narrowed quotations

Several months ago I posed the following question.
When I start a paragraph with a \quote or a \quotation the left quotemark
does not protrude, but when I use Unicode quotes it does. I would prefer to
use the commands. Any suggestions on how I can achieve proper left
protrusion without resorting to Unicode characters?
Wolfgang suggested the following lines of code; which worked perfically.
\setupquotation [method=font]
\setupquote [method=font]
Returning to this project after several months I observe that when I use a
\start- stopquotation environment, the quotation is not narrowed. The
\setupquotation command obviously affects both the \quotation command and
\start- stopquotation environment.
Is there an elegant way to apply the \setupquotation command and retain the
quotation indentation?
Cheers,
Michael
