I want to typeset the section title in stretched smallcaps in the
header.  This is what I came up with, but it won't print the section
title, but instead the phrase »section«:
Do you use Mark 2 or Mark 4?
Mark 4.  I found a reasonable working solution:
\definecharacterkerning[extra]
\setupcharacterkerning[extra][factor=0.25]
\setupheader[]
\setupheadertexts[\setups{header}]
\startsetups[header]
   \start
     \setcharacterkerning[extra]
     \hfill {\sc{\lowercased{\getmarking[section]}}}\hfill
   \stop
\stopsetups
You can save a few lines (the second variant gives a bigger spaces):

\setupheadertexts[\WORDS{\tfx\kerncharacters[0.25]\getmarking[section]}]
%\setupheadertexts[{\setuptolerance[space]\WORDS{\tfx\kerncharacters[0.25]\getmarking[section]}}]

\starttext

\section{This is a Test!}

\input knuth

\stoptext
