Ok, but then

\definehead[xx][chapter]

\setupsection[\sectionofhead{chapter}][conversion=Romannumerals]
\setupsection[\sectionofhead{xx}][conversion=Character]

will put Character conversion for both chapter and xx heading. That's why  
i thought it could be interesting to have the conversion option also for  
setuphead, to limit the conversion to one heading.

btw, it seems strange to have so many setuphead command options  
(textcommand, numbercommand, deepnumbercommand) to format completely the  
head rendering, and not the ability to change only the head number  
conversion without changing the whole global section level.
