It does nothing. In this example the TOC and Preamble section still have  
default numbering:

% to have page numbers in roman in frontmatter
\setupsectionblock
       [frontmatter]
       [before={\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]}]

\starttext

\startfrontmatter
\completecontent

\chapter{Preamble}
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
\stopfrontmatter

\startbodymatter

\chapter{A body chapter}
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

\stopbodymatter

\stoptext

But, of course, doing this works:
...
\startfrontmatter
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
\completecontent

\chapter{Preamble}
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
\stopfrontmatter
...
