Unfortunately up to vers. 20120125 there is a bug when cite/index/startregister and bookmarks are used in a project.
The first version that solved this bug was vers. 20120208 ... and this already introduced the new footnotes.

The triangle can be switched of by "\setupnote[symbolcommand=\gobbleoneargument]", as Wolfgang knew.

In general we'd need a comprehensive explanation what is new and what has to be changed.
