How about cooking up something with \setuphead[chapter][after=...] to apply \lettrine to the first word or letter of the first paragraph ? So far for the idea. For the implementation I'm clueless...

This smoothes the gap between the first character and the normal type. Automatiing that in terms of \setup will be even harder, I guess.
