i'll add a switch:

\unprotect

\chardef\topinserttopskipmode=0 % 1 no topskip

\def\OTRONEdotopinsertions
  {\ifvoid\topins\else
     \ifgridsnapping
       \box\topins
       \vskip-\topskip
       \vskip\strutheight % [xx] new: see icare topbleed
     \else
       \ifcase\topinserttopskipmode
         % 0: default, do nothing
       \or
         % 1: no topskip (crossed fingers)
         \vskip-\topskip
         \vskip\strutheight
       \fi
       \unvbox\topins
     \fi
   \fi
   \global\topinserted\zeropoint}

\protect

\starttext
\showframe
\placefigure[top]{}{\externalfigure[dummy][frame=on]}
\stoptext

so, 

\chardef\topinserttopskipmode=1

will remove topskip; undocumented, not interfaced, etc
