\unprotect

\resetvalue{\??sw\v!chapter}

\startsetups chapter:list

  \doifsomething{\sectionworldparameter\c!author}
    {\expanded{\writetolist[\v!chapter]
      {\sectionworldparameter\c!author:\space
       \sectionworldparameter\c!text}{}}}

  \def\ChapterSubTitle{\sectionworldparameter\c!subtitle}

\stopsetups

\setupsectionworld
  [chapter]
  [setups={chapter:list},
   author=]

\def\ChapterCommand#1#2%
  {\vbox{#2\crlf\ChapterSubTitle}}

\let\ChapterSubTitle\relax

\protect

\setuphead
  [chapter]
  [incrementnumber=no,
   command=\ChapterCommand]

\starttext
\completecontent
\startsectionworld[chapter][author=Hans,text=Chapter One,subtitle=The Beginning]
\startsectionworld[chapter][author=Tom,text=Chapter Two,subtitle=The End]
\stopsectionworld
