I tried all those Hraban, unsuccessfully, but finally 'happened' upon a 
solution by trying whitespace instead in the setups. Except that I had 
read somewhere in the mailing list (Pablo I think) that I would need to 
use \directsetup. I don't actually understand why, have never been sure 
about what \directsetup does, but there's no doubt it works in this 
case! So the following has done what I needed:


\startsetups[setups:footnotes]

  \setupwhitespace[.01em]

\stopsetups

\setupnote[before=\directsetup{setups:footnotes}]
