Ah! Perhaps disambiguating would help unsuspecting users. So in  
\setupdescriptions we have things like

style = normal bold slanted boldslanted type cap small... command
[i.e. style = <name>|<command>]
color = <name>
before = <command>

So in the explanation of the foregroundstyle key we could have, e.g.

foregroundstyle	= <name|command>

making it clear that this key takes both a name and a command argument.  
Anyway, thanks kindly and

Best wishes
Idris
