So, it took a while, but I got kind of a "minimal example":

\starttext
\startitemize[intro]
\dorecurse{12}{%
  \item \dorecurse{\recurselevel}{This is some intro. }Intro ends here.
  \startitemize[intro,columns,two]
  \dorecurse{4}{%
    \item \dorecurse{1}{This is a test. }End of the test.
  }%
  \stopitemize
}%
\stopitemize
\stoptext


(This shows the problem in the online ConTeXt.)

And one more request (not really urgent, but would be nice): if there's
an \item followed directly by another \startitemize (possibly
two-column), a line break is enforced.  Does it have to be?
