The next beta will have \setbar for that purpose, used as:

\setuphead[section][textstyle={\setbar[overstrike]},textcolor=blue]

\definehighlight[Whatever][color=darkyellow]
\definehighlight[Delete]  [color=red,style={\setbar[overstrike]}]
\definehighlight[Keep]    [color=green]

\starttext

     \setupbar[overstrike][foregroundcolor=cyan,color=blue]

     \startsection[title={{\green green} foo {\green green}}]

         foo \startbar[overstrike]bar\stopbar

         test  \Delete{test} test \Keep{test} test \Whatever{test} test

         \color[red]{test  \Delete{test} test \Keep{test} test}

     \stopsection

\stoptext

for the source watchers: watch the subtle change in

\mult_interfaces_install_style_and_color_handler
