How about this:

\useMPlibrary
	[dum]

\setuplayout
	[width=10cm,
	 rightmargin=5cm]

\setupmargindata
	[inouter]
	[location=outer,
	 stack=continue]

\definefloat
	[marginfigure]
	[marginfigures]
	[figure]

\setupfloat
	[marginfigure]
	[default=margin]

\definefloat
	[margintext]
	[margintexts]

\setupfloat
	[margintext]
	[default=margin]

\setupcaption
	[margintext]
	[location=none]

\starttext

\input knuth

\startplacemarginfigure [title=Foo]
	\externalfigure [dum] [width=\rightmarginwidth]
\stopplacemarginfigure

\startplacemargintext
	\input ward
\stopplacemargintext

\input knuth

\startplacemarginfigure [title=Bar]
	\externalfigure [dum] [width=\rightmarginwidth]
\stopplacemarginfigure

\stoptext


You need to put the \placemargintext at the beginning of a
paragraph, otherwise it will cause an unwanted break.
