For this subfigure stuff, perhaps this is useful?

% setup definitions
\definecounter[subfigure][way=bytext,prefix=no]
\setupcounter[subfigure][state=start,numberconversion=a]
\setcounter[subfigure][1]

\def\setsubfigures
  {\setcounter[subfigure][1]
   \incrementcounter[figure]
   \setupcaption[figure][state=stop,numberstopper={\convertedcounter[subfigure]}]}

\def\unsetsubfigures
  {\setupcaption[figure][state=start,numberstopper=]}

%usage
\setsubfigures

\startplacefigure[title=Test figure]
\externalfigure[dummy]
\stopplacefigure

\incrementnumber[subfigure]

\startplacefigure[title=Test another figure]
\externalfigure[dummy]
\stopplacefigure

\unsetsubfigures


I could not find a safe way to increment the subfigure number automatically, unfortunately.

Best wishes,
Taco
