\stretched

Hi,

if I write

\starttext

\stretched[width=5cm]{Some text}

\stretched[factor=0.4]{Some text}

\stoptext

when factor= is used, the text occupies the entire width, rather than
just stretching the words.

(Is this the intention?)

How does one get text stretched by a certain factor without having it
occupy the entire line?

(Without using some trickery like putting the text in an \hbox, calculating
the desired width from the factor and the \wd of that hbox, and then using
\stretched with width=<that result>.)

Thanks.

                                Jim
