Description

Avoid using \vskip in ConTeXt.

The \blank subsystem can deal with many spacing-related issues. The command retains information about what happened before (and might happen next); bare \vskips interfere with this mechanism.

Consequently problems related to \vskip when using ConTeXt are likely to remain unaddressed by the community due to being extremely difficult to resolve.
