It’s a \framed bug in MkII but you can use \rotate to avoid it.

> I do expect that \rotate[rotation=90]{\externalfigure[foo][width=4cm]} gets me a height of 4cm.

As you can see the figure has a height of 4cm.

\setupexternalfigures[location=default]

\starttext

\dontleavehmode\blackrule[height=4cm] \rotate[rotation=90]{\externalfigure[cow][width=4cm]}

\stoptext
