You can use \testpage to make sure chapter entries have a certain number of lines before a page break happens, e.g. \setuplist[chapter][before={\testpage[4]\blank}]

When you need manual page breaks in the TOC in your final document there is another mechanism: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2010/052739.html

Make a example.
