I have been using it a lot since, although Context seems to use a lot
of brackets, it won't allow nested ones. For example, I have to use:
\newcommand{\hfstyle}{\switchtobodyfont[15pt]}
\setupheader[style=\hfstyle]
because I'll get an error from:
\setupheader[style=\switchtobodyfont[15pt]]
Is there an easier way?

I don't see how could you possibly use \high{} for the footnote marks
(\setupnote[footnote][?]). Besides, as I understand it, \high{} just
rescales the body font---which always looks bad. So, I don't want to
use \high{}. I use my numr feature which gives me exactly the right
shape and height, but I have a little space between the footnotes.
How do I eliminate the space? Maybe by setting a verytolerant grid
for the footnotes? I don't know how.

\setupheader[style={\switchtobodyfont[15pt]}]

that will indeed define the interlinespace; also, the regular \high
command does some snapping while with the supp feature you're dependent
on what the fonts delivers as ht/dp of a glyph

Thanks, Peter. With some experimentation I got what I wanted. For
the record, I'm using:
\definefontfeature[su][body][sups=yes,ordn=yes]%superior
\definefontfeature[nu][body][numr=yes]%numerator
\definefontfeature[po][body][pnum=yes,onum=yes]%proportional old style
\newcommand{\fnmstyle}{\addff{nu}\switchtobodyfont[12pt]}
\newcommand{\fntstyle}{\addff{po}}
\setupnote[footnote][location=columns,numbercommand=\fnmstyle,textcommand=\fntstyle,textstyle=\addff{su},align={normal,hanging},split=verystrict,interaction=yes]
I don't know quite why it works, but it works---except for one little
thing---there is a little vertical space between each footnote
(apparently because of the \switchtobodyfont[12pt]).
So I have one more question: is there a way to force the footnotes
onto their own grid to prevent this? I am already using
\setuplayout[...,grid=verytolerant], which I thought would take care
of it.
