dotfill is actually a plain tex command using periods and spacing from
the math font / mode ... (maybe we should redefine it to behave
differently in text mode)
you can use this:
\definefiller
[myfill]
[symbol=.,
method=middle,
width=.5\emwidth,
leftmargin=.25em,
rightmargin=.25em]
\starttext
text before \filler[myfill] text after
\stoptext
