Thank you, Wolfgang.
With a little fine tuning I think I have what I need to generate an
index that is compliant to the Chicago 17 and 18 requirements, at least
for this book.
I did not realize that \placeregister[register1,register2...] merges the
registers. That is not the case with \placenotes[anotes,bnotes...],
which sets the notes serially.
If \placenotes[anotes,bnotes...] had an option to merged the registers,
I might have a solution to the issue I raised at the end of August
(Inserting text between end notes). Of course, this might also require
fixing the bug I described when note numbers are suppressed (Problem
with end note processing, also at the end of August).

Hello experts,
Is there a way to generate an entry without a page number in an
register that has page numbers enabled? This would enabled /See also/
entries to be generated with something like
\setregisterentry[TopicIndex][keys:2=zzz,entries:1=punctuation,entries:2={{\em
See also} marking}]%
I do see that there is an alternative key defined for the command,
but no explanation of what the alternatives are and if any would help.
You have to set "ownnumber=yes" but I don't think the feature is
supported at the moment (or I failed to set the correct values) but
you can use the following method to get rid of the pagenumber.
%%%% begin example
\defineregister
[TopicIndex]
\defineregister
[SeeTopicIndex]
[TopicIndex]
[pagecommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\starttext
\samplefile{lorem}
\setregisterentry[TopicIndex][entries:1=punctuation]%
\samplefile{lorem}
\setregisterentry[SeeTopicIndex][entries:1=punctuation,entries:2={{\em
See also} marking}]%
\samplefile{lorem}
\placeregister[TopicIndex,SeeTopicIndex][n=1]
\stoptext
%%%% end example
Wolfgang
