i dunno, but i remember problems with splits between chapter, section and subsection heads and context prohibits that; *any* tex where some construct introduces whitespace has this problem but i can imagine some tricky stuff with the otr involved (and even then there may be interference with preceding material); i do (did) observe that latex has a different spacing model (and interfering penalties may be a reason why sometimes spacing gets messed up);
i will implement a second spacing model once luatex is available
in tex, when one has a controlled situation, solutions are possible but context is rather configurable
\setuphead[section][after=\blank\pelanty10000\relax] may help but also mess up spacing
(esp floats are hard to interface with such things because they also look at the available space and currently don't look back; keep in mind that when looking back the content is already put in the mlv and ther ei sno knowledg ewhat is preceding the current structure
