I would like to use a variable for the value of the list argument in, e.g., the \startsection command. If you compile my little example you will see that the first 'literal' assignment works, while the second 'variable' assignment does not. What am I missing here?
ConTeXt saves by default the list entries without expanding them which means you get "\getvariable{TOC}{list}" as entry in the table of contents for your section section entry but at this moment you haven’t set a value for this variable. To get the content of the variable in the list entry you have to expand the argument of the list key, one way is the use of the \expanded command as shown by Marco but you also let ConTeXt do this for you (no need for \expanded{…}) when you add \setuphead[section][expansion=yes] at the begin of your document.
