The problem is not the \index command but the text in the register, as you can
see in the example below the text and the page number are in separate columns
(or in the long example on separate pages).


\setuppapersize[A6]

\starttext     

\index{Too long entry}Long index entry.

\blank

\placeindex

\stoptext


This is caused by this macro in strc-reg.mkiv where you insert only a normal skip
between the the text and page number, changing \hskip to \nobreak\hskip moves
at least a part of the last word in the entry to the next column in the example above.

\unexpanded\def\registerpageseparator% todo: , configurable
  {\ifconditional\c_strc_registers_page_done
     \registerpageseparatorsymbol
   \else
     \hskip\d_strc_registers_distance\relax
     \settrue\c_strc_registers_page_done
   \fi}
