Is this a solution?
This looks  like the solution,  yes. However you scatter  the source
with \FullWidth commands.  Wagners solution seems to  be more clean.
So we end up with the following:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Sorry Aditya, for not using your kitties ;)
\useMPlibrary [dum]

\defineframed [FigureFramed]
	[
		 width=.8\textwidth,
		offset=overlay,
		 frame=off,
	]

% Doesn't work :( Why not?
%\setupfloat [figure] [width=.8\textwidth]

\setupfloat [figure] [command=\FigureFramed]

\starttext

\startplacefigure [title=Foo Bar]
	\externalfigure [placeholder]
\stopplacefigure

\startplacefigure [title={\input tufte\par}]
	\externalfigure [placeholder]
\stopplacefigure

\input knuth

\stoptext
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

But the question is, why does setting the float width in \setupfloat
fail?  What  else is  it  supposed  to do?  It  doesn't  seem to  do
anything.
