I hadn't, but I have now.  (I assume the color=blue was meant to be 
framecolor=blue?)  That does seem to work well and avoid most of the 
problems; thanks!

It still doesn't give me a \parskip before the typed text, though -- try 
putting a \setupspacing[big] with the above code to see what I 
mean.  (That's an easy fix, though; a \vskip\parskip in the before= command 
fixes it.)  That seems like a bug somewhere, though -- if I comment out the 
\setuptyping command, the spacing is fine.
