Ahh, now I see where my problem lays:


\setupcolors[state=start]

\starttext

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\setupfootnotes[textcolor=magenta]

\setupfootnotedefinition[before={\color[green]}]
test\footnote{test}

\stoptext



Despite the fact that interaction carries its own color, elements can  
be re-colored by their own color definition (see above).
Only the number of the note in front of the footnote text always gets  
overridden by interaction color!

This distinction I didn't expect.


Why should exclusively that poor little number not be allowed to have  
its own color?
