Thanks for the hint. 

But as I found, any value below 2.8ex causes interline inconsistencies when
special cases appears, see the extreme below:

\starttext
\start
\setupinterlinespace[line=1.0ex]
\placecontent
\stop
\chapter{aaaaaaaa}. % line without descenders precedes a line without
ascenders
\chapter{pppppppp}. % line with descenders is followed with a line with
ascenders
\chapter{ŠŠŠŠŠŠŠŠ}. % the result is an inconsistent baseline distance
\stoptext

Is there any remedy for this? Can I fix the baseline distance somehow?

I have such cases in my TOC :-( 
(but not so extreme as here)

Thanks, Jan
