Martin,

how about making the initial transparent?

    \definecolor[transparentblue][t=0, a=1]
    \setupwhitespace[medium]
    \starttext
    \placeinitial
    Knuth writes:

    \placeinitial \starteffect[hidden]K\stopeffect\input knuth
    \setupinitial[color=transparentblue]

    \placeinitial K\input knuth
    \stoptext

The sample contains two methods.

Just in case it helps,

Pablo
