Now we have another problem, the paragraph after \stoptest does not revert 
back to the old interlinespace:

\definestartstop
   [test]
   [before={\setupinterlinespace[2]},
    after=\endgraf]

\starttext

\starttest

\stoptest

I tried

\bgroup \baselineskip 1cm \input tufte \egroup \par

\input tufte

\bgroup \baselineskip 1cm \input tufte \par \egroup

\input tufte

The  line
\bgroup \baselineskip 1cm \input tufte \par \egroup
does not have the same problem as the start/stoptest environment.
