There is, that is, if you believe in miracles. Key in:
\setupfootnotes[way=bypage]
\starttext
test \footnote{test} test \page
test \footnote{test} test \page
test \footnote{test} test \page
\stoptext
run texexec with your eyes closed, count to 89 and view the file.
>(There are not so much footnotes in "my" book, and the redactors don't

There is a rather advanced system of conversion available. In the english
beta chapter on layout one can read:
\setupfootnotes[conversion=set 3]
as a way to change the conversion. One can define his/her own conversion
sets (will be in another chapter). Set 3 is for example defined as:
\defineconversion
[set 3]
[\mathematics{\star},
\mathematics{\star\star},
\mathematics{\star\star\star},
\mathematics{\ddagger},
\mathematics{\ddagger\ddagger},
\mathematics{\ddagger\ddagger\ddagger},
\mathematics{\P},
\mathematics{\P\P},
\mathematics{\P\P\P},
\mathematics{\S},
\mathematics{\S\S},
\mathematics{\S\S\S},
\mathematics{\ast},
\mathematics{\ast\ast},
\mathematics{\ast\ast\ast}]
See core-con.tex (conversion) for more examples. In a similar way you can
define your own sets, conversions, symbols and so on. [there are also
symbol sets]

Sure.

To get way=bypage support you need a more recent version.
