No wonder you get unexpected results with this definition, better solutions are

\definehead[myframedsection][section]

\setuphead
  [myframedsection]
  [before={\blank[0.5in]\startframedtext[background=color,backgroundcolor=gray:10]},
   after={\stopframedtext\blank[0.25in]},
   color=blue*:3]

and

\define[2]\MyframedsectionCommand
  {\framed
     [background=color,backgroundcolor=gray:10,align=flushleft]
     {\hbox to 2cm{#1}\vtop{\hsize=\dimexpr\hsize-2cm\relax#2}}}

\definehead[myframedsection][section]

\setuphead
  [myframedsection]
  [before={\blank[0.5in]},
   command=\MyframedsectionCommand,
   style=blue*:3]
