In my larger document (approx 600 pages, over 1000 references)
problematic entries like \cite[{{A, B, and C}}] did not display at all,
though the document did process without claims of stack errors etc.
Curiously,
\goto{A, B, and C}[{{A, B, and C}}]
does work as expected.

i'll upload a beta that support this:

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext

\startchapter[reference={{A, B, and C}},title={Foo}]

    \in{IN}[name{A, B, and C}]

    \in{IN}[name(A, B, and C)]

\stopchapter

you need to be aware of the fact that references have some kind of syntax and are parsed (so that we only need one system for every kind of referencing); most make only sense for \goto but parsing happens anyway for \in and \at so i hooked name() into it, similar to [page(123)] we can have [name(abc)] now

        references can be a comma separated list, so

        A, B, and C

        is actually three tags:  "A" "B" "and C"

        so, you run into parsing problems, so how to deal with:

        [A, B, and C]

        maybe:

        [{A, B, and C}]

        alas, in comma separated list the first level of {} is removed
        but we can cheat:

        [{{A, B, and C}}]

        works with \cite [{{A, B, and C}}]
