Took me a year and a half to find out about this one, but this works for
me now:

\setupcaptions
	[width=\textwidth, % makes caption as wide as text
	 align=middle]	% aligns caption in the middle (of text + pic)

Note: all my captions (figures + tables) are under the pictures; as I
haven't done anything about it, I'd assume it being the default setting.

PS. While I cannot share the contents of my ConTeXt files at this point,
I'll be glad to send you the setup part of my file(s) - although I don't
probably do very "beautiful" ConTeXt code here, it is fairly simple and
well documented (as others will need to understand it as well).
