Could you please be more verbose where exaclty you want the
pagenumber? Please check with 

\setuppagenumbering 
     [alternative=doublesided,
      location={header,inmargin}]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{40}{\input tufte }
\stoptext

where and how should the 1 be aligned? You want it in the margin, but
how far to the right?

outer of what? 


\setuppagenumbering 
     [alternative=doublesided,
      location={header,inmargin}]
\setupheadertexts[section][][][chapter]
\showframe
\starttext
\dorecurse{10}{\chapter{chaptertitle}
        \input tufte 
        \dorecurse{5}{\section{crazy section} 
        \input tufte }}
\stoptext

Sorry, can't help you here. don't know anything about footnotes.
Please provide an example.


And a note: please provide minimal but complete (!!!) examples. It
saves much time on giving me (and others) an idea of what you want.
And be more specific about inner/outer and alignment. 

To emphasize the importance (for me) once again:
