Hey Wolfgang. I just retested your minimal and realized that while it
does work, only for the first box. Try this and you'll see what I mean:

\definebackground
[TimelineDocumentFrame]
[frame=on,
before=\blank,
after=\blank,
corner=round,
topoffset=0.5cm,
rightoffset=0.5cm]

\definestartstop
[TimelineDocument]
[before=\startTimelineDocumentFrame,
after=\stopTimelineDocumentFrame,
style=italic]

\starttext

\startTimelineDocument
Some stuff in a box.
\stopTimelineDocument

\startTimelineDocument
Some more stuff in a box.
\stopTimelineDocument

\stoptext
