The MWE below does all this, but for the appendices the number overflows the 12mm width, which is ugly of course. So I need to specify either a width with some stretch so the list layout will adapt, or somehow be able to specify a different width for the appendix entries.

\define[1]\ChapterlistNumber
  {\dowithnextbox
     {\ifdim\nextboxwd<12mm
        \simplealignedbox{12mm}{flushleft}{\flushnextbox}%
      \else
        \simplealignedbox{30mm}{flushleft}{\flushnextbox}%
      \fi}
     \hbox{#1}}

\setuplist
  [chapter]
  [width=0pt,
   label=yes,
   alternative=c,
   numbercommand=\ChapterlistNumber]
