You can use alternative=none and supply your own formatting macro. In
conjunction with multiple toc lists, this is quite flexible. There is an
example at: http://home.salamander.com/~wmcclain/context-help.html, in
the section "Table of contents with different sections".

Bringhurst on dot leaders: "unenlightening rows of dots that force the
eye to walk the width of the page like a prisoner being escorted back to
its cell."

But I bet you can use them within your own formatting macro.
