There is always a non-context solution, (so it's a kind of off-topic here...)
More seriously (well, only a bit), it can be seen as a sort of syntathic sugar
(just because I like coffe with sugar, but it' a taste of mine..)

\setuplayout[width=10cm]
\long\def\TSIF#1{\item \framed\bgroup #1}
\def\TSIFE{\egroup}
\starttext
\setupframed[offset=2mm,
            corner=round,
            background=color,
            backgroundcolor=blue,
            foregroundcolor=white,
            frame=off,
            strut=no,inbetween={\blank[3*line]}
            location=high,
            align=normal,
            width=\textwidth]

\startitemize[n]
\item \framed{The text of this item is made very long because it is intended to
show the effect of what happens when an item extends to more than just one
line.}
\item \framed{This item is relatively short, but also fills more than one
line.}

\TSIF%
This item is relatively short, but also fills more than one
\TSIFE

\TSIF%
This item is relatively short, but also fills more than one
\TSIFE

\stopitemize

\stoptext
