How to keep the correct line numbering when using ConTeXt vim module?

Question

Consider the following code:

\usemodule[vim]

\definevimtyping
  [somecode]
  [numbering=yes,lines=split]

\starttext
\startsomecode
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consetetur sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliquyam erat, sed diam voluptua.
\stopsomecode
\stoptext

It is obvious that the code line (which is of course not actual code) is rather long, but it is one line. In the output one will see:

Note that line numbers have been introduced that do not reflect the line numbers in source. Is it possible to get the "original" line numbering in the output?

Bonus: If there is an option, does anyone know of a way to indent text after a line wrap?

Answer 1

This is too long to be a comment so I am posting this as an answer. I am the current maintainer of t-vim and the one who added the functionality for line numbering. In principle, this is possible. The 2context.vim script converts a line to the following

\SYNBOL ... \SYNEOL

The initial implementation of line numbering was to redefine \SYNBOL to add a number in the left margin. This worked but did not provide any of the other options of line numbering environment (set style of number, distance of number, skip, start, conversion, referencing, etc.). I didn't want to reimplement all those features in t-vim. So, I eventually settled for piggy-packing on the built-in line numbering environment, which currently doesn't have the option to specify that some content which belongs to the same line is actually split into two lines.

I don't plan to rewrite the way line numbering is handled in t-vim. I'll check on the context mailing list if it is possible to add support for "skip linenumber if on sameline". The code for that is already there in page-lin.lua (line 415-422) but is commented out for some reason.
