My solution (worked out with Steve Peter and Hans at PracTeX Chapel Hill:

 

\def\MyNum#1{\hskip2em\relax#1. }%\hskip your indent here

\setupnote[footnote][numbercommand=\MyNum]

\setupnotedefinition[footnote][location=left,hang=1]

 

Of course, to have a superscripted number you say

How does one get ConTeXt to indent and space paragraphs in footnotes
according to the same rules as the body text?

I have checked the manual but do not see how to adapt
\setupfootnotes to do this, and my attempts thus far with
\setupfootnotedefinition have not been unsuccessful either.

Thanks for any help or pointers.
