Thanks for the tip, but I've a slightly more complex layout and it might
need a more generalized solution, see:

\definepagebreak
  [mychapterpagebreak]
   [yes,header,footer,right]

\setuphead
 [chapter]
 [page=mychapterpagebreak]


\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided,location={header,margin}]
\setupheadertexts[{My special headertext}]
\setupfootertexts[This is a text in the footer]

\starttext
   \chapter {testA} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
   \startstandardmakeup \dorecurse{4}{\input tufte }
\stopstandardmakeup
   \chapter {testB} \dorecurse{10}{\input tufte }
\stoptext

The page after first chapter and before the markup is empty and thus
shouldn't have any headers/footers, but it isn't.

Regards,
 Khaled
