To set colors for the background you need “background color,backgroundcolor=<name>”.

\defineframedtext
  [important]
  [background=screen,
   frame=off,
   width=broad]

\starttext

\startimportant
\input ward
\stopimportant

\startimportant[background=color,backgroundcolor=red]
\input ward
\stopimportant

\stoptext
