Thank you, Wolfgang, this works; apparently, the chapter has to be set with \startchapter … \stopchapter and footnotes after \chapter won’t be flushed unless \startchapter \footnote{something} \stopchapter. This makes sense to me. I guess, internally \head (e.g. \section, \chapter etc.) is simply not “converted" to \starthead ... \stophead before the next invocation of \head or the end of \stoptext?

Potentially on the same lines, placing delayed element seems currently not to work properly (or the syntax has changed?). I think these features of MkIV are very elegant and useful. I’m just wondering if they are/were temporarily not working (tried on 2019.12.27 16:34 MKIV beta and the Wiki’s ConTeXt online) or have been disabled/changed for some reason? Thanks!

Here is a slightly reformatted version of Hans code which works for me with the latest ConTeXt version (I checked only LMTX).
\startsetups[chapter:after] \ifcase\rawcountervalue[footnote]\relax % \or \startsubject[title=Footnote] \placefootnotes \stopsubject \else \startsubject[title=Footnotes] \placefootnotes \stopsubject \fi \stopsetups
\setupnote [footnote] [location=none] \setupnotation [footnote] [way=bychapter]
\setuphead[chapter][aftersection=\setups{chapter:after}]
\starttext
\dorecurse{4} {\startchapter[title={Number #1}] A few notes\dorecurse{\numexpr#1-1\relax}{\footnote{Note #1.##1}}. \stopchapter}
\stoptext
