\startuniqueMPgraphic{nice}
   draw bottomboundary OverlayBox
     leftenlarged 6pt rightenlarged 6pt
     shifted (0,.75HeaderHeight) ;
   setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ; % forces dimensions
\stopuniqueMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[nice][\uniqueMPgraphic{nice}]

\setupbackgrounds[header][text][background=nice]

\starttext

\input ward

\stoptext

I added a couple of shifts and enlargements to play with
