hm, configuring this is on the to do list, you may try: 

\bgroup
\let\unknown\relax
\placelist...
\egroup

and 

\setupheadertexts [{\let\unknown\relax\getmarking[chapter]}] []

there by killing the dots. A good alternative is to set 

  maxwidth=.75\hsize

to some dimension in lists and 

  leftwidth=.5\hsize

in setupheader and alike commands, which limits the length. We mostly use
that one.
