Ok.

But I need to keep the line spacing, even if accents collide.
E.g.

\setupbodyfont[rm,20pt]
\setupinterlinespace[8mm]
\setuplayout[
  width=10cm,
  %grid=yes, % different, but bad either way
]
\showgrid

\definefont[TitleFont][SansBold at 24pt][8mm]

\def\Blindtext{Ein Anfänger der Gitarre habe Eifer. Mönsch ärgere düch nïcht! Über Állen Wípfeln ìst Ŕüh. O Tannenbaum, wie blau sind deine Nadeln.}

\starttext

\Blindtext
\WORD{\Blindtext}

{\TitleFont\Blindtext
\WORD{\Blindtext}}

\stoptext

In my actual use case, my usual line spacing is good for the body text, and the slightly bigger section titles should keep it; there would be no visual(!) collision of accents on uppercase characters with the previous line, but ConTeXt increases the line spacing nevertheless. If I activate the grid, I get double line height only in the section titles with umlauts – quite ugly.
Can’t I force the line height?

Best, Hraban
