But we already have a way to get around that: width=max
\setupfloat[figure][default={left,nonumber}]
\setupcaption[figure][align=flushleft, width=max]
\starttext
\placefigure{my figure caption a really long
caption}{\externalfigure[images/image1.jpg]}
\input knuth
\placefigure{my figure caption}{\externalfigure[images/image1.jpg]}
\input tufte
\stoptext
