That's actually something I had never thought of, using PDF comments,
thanks!. 
It's a really nice approach, though weirdly it doesn't work on Okular
(Linux+KDE) 
for me, even though attachments worked fine. I'll try and see why that
is. 

What I had in mind was rather the following: 

\starttext 
\starttyping[space=on] 
def foo(x):
    y = bar(x) 
    if y: 
        return x 
    return y 
foo(1) 
\stoptyping 
\stoptext

but with ordinary char32 spaces rather than \textcontrolspace
characters. 

Best regards,
