Preremark: Usually, in ConTeXt, text in curly braces is printed and in 
brackets is not.

In this case, \mnote{xxx} and \mnote[foo]{xxx} print the same, but you 
defined a label "foo", which you can access later like in "See in my 
margin note 1 on page 22."

Well, this is exactly the purpose, if you want to refer to a previous 
margin note, you can access it again. \in[foo] prints the margin-note 
number. And "\in{note}[foo]" prefixes it with the word "note". If you 
have an setup interactivity, you can click on "note 2" and jump to the note.

It might well be that you do not need that feature, but sometimes it 
might becomes handy.
