\chapter{some text \nomarking{whatever} and some more}

I fear the to is not handled. You can so something:

\def\nocontent#1{#1}

an when placing the content: 

\def\nocontent#1{...}

but it should actually be a feature. I'll add it when I extend / cleanup
the sectioning.

I assume that part (part.pdf or part.jpg or so) is a figure?

??

Parts are always kind of special, so they seldom fit in the general
mechanism. How about: 

\setuphead
  [part]
  [command=\MyPart,
   style=,
   placehead=yes,
   number=yes]

\useexternalfigure[cow][cow][factor=max]

\def\MyPart#1#2%
  {\bfd #1 : #2}

\def\StartPart#1#2%
  {\page
   \defineoverlay[somepage][{\externalfigure[#1]}]
   \setupbackgrounds[page][background=somepage]
   \startstandardmakeup
   \part{#2}
   \vfill}

\def\StopPart%
  {\stopstandardmakeup
   \setupbackgrounds[page][background=]}

\StartPart {cow} {ONE}

some funny motto

\StopPart

\StartPart {cow} {TWO}

some funny motto

\StopPart

Of course you need a cow to let this work; factor=max makes the picture
scale to fit best.
