I find that "abc \doifmode{mode}{text} more text" can introduce extra whitespace. I conclude therefore that there is no \ignorespaces at work here. As a consequence the \doifmode does not completely disappear if mode is not satisfied.
Is this intentional or should this behaviour be changed?

You can use the annotation module, it supports this function.

\usemodule[annotation]

\defineannotation[test][alternative=text]

\starttext

Can you see this \test{hidden} text?

\setupannotation[test][alternative=none]

Can you see this \test{hidden} text?

\stoptext

Can you provide a minimal example. I don't get any extra spaces

\enablemode[test]
\starttext
A\doifmode{test}{B}C

A\doifmode{notest}{B}C
\stoptext

There is a unwanted space in the second paragraph.

\enablemode[test]

\starttext

A \doifmode{test}{B} C

A \doifmode{notest}{B} C

\stoptext

I dare voicing a different opinion. Allthough there indeed is both a space before the \doifmode as well as after it, I am aware of that but that is besides my point. I expected the \doifmode to vanish completely when the condition is not met. As is the case, even if the condition is not met it has a measurable effect because of the extra space being typeset. 
To be more explicit, my expectations were: A \doifmode{condition-not-met}{B} C resulting in: AC 
whereas it becomes: A C.

I guess modes aren’t meant for this but again i can only offer my annotation module.

\usemodule[annotation]

\defineannotation[test][alternative=text]

\starttext

A \test{B} C

\setupannotation[test][alternative=none,next=\ignorespaces]

A \test{B} C

\stoptext

spaces are always meaningful

   A \doifmode{condition-not-met}{B} C

actually what you ask for is:

   A<space>\doifmode{condition-not-met}{B}<space>C

so when the condition is not met you get

   A<space><space>C

i can see no reason for ignoring spaces after a doifmode by default
