Hans,

This does not do anything different, and in particular it does not 
create a link.
Perhaps this new example better illustrates the problem:

    \setupinteraction[state=start]
    \setupregister[index][n=1]
    \setuppapersize[A7]
    \starttext

    \type{Dilbert} should be a link to the second-level on page~3 (or
    perhaps to the top level on page~2) in this example.

    \type{Dilbert} is \type{Adams+Scott} and \type{Catbert} is
    \type{Adams{+}Scott}. They link nowhere. \type{Dogbert} is
    \type{Adams}, which links to page~2.
    \index{Adams+Douglas}\index{Adams+Amy}\index{Adams+John}
    \index{Adams+John Quincy}\index{Adams+Sam}\index{Adams+Scott}
    \seeindex{Dilbert}{Adams+Scott}
    \seeindex{Catbert}{Adams{+}Scott}
    \seeindex{Dogbert}{Adams}
    \index{A}\index{AA}\index{AAA}\index{AAAA}\index{AB}\index{AAB}
    \index{ABB}\index{AABB}
    \page
    \placeindex
    \stoptext
