Thanks, Wolfgang—it does help to know when one is asking too much of ConTeXt.

A follow up, if I may. 

Unlike \starthanging..\stophanging which behaves in the same way in both body text and footnotes, \placefigure does not. In footnotes, \olacefigure adds an opening blank line and runs the text through the image. It does, however, seem to place the image better. An example:

\setupexternalfigures[location={local,default}]

\starttext

text text,%
\footnote{
\starthanging[location=right]
{\externalfigure[cow][width=.1\textwidth]}
\dorecurse{2}{\input ward}
\stophanging}
 and more text%
\footnote{\placefigure[right,none]{}
{\externalfigure[cow][width=.1\textwidth]}
\dorecurse{2}{\input ward}
}

\placefigure[right,none]{}
{\externalfigure[cow][width=.1\textwidth]}
\dorecurse{2}{\input ward}
\stoptext

If \placefigure worked in footnotes as it does in body text, that would be good—though being able to place the image at the right but under the first line or first two lines of the footnote would be ideal.

Is there a way to get this outcome using either \starthanging..\stophanging or \placefigure?

You need the \parshape to command to get this kind of output but AFAIK there is no user interface for this in context.
