\define[2]\ChapterCommand
  {\line
     {\leaders\hbox
        {\vrule width 1pt height .5\strutht depth
-\dimexpr.5\strutht-\linewidth\relax}\hfill
      #1\space#2}}

\setuphead[chapter][command=\ChapterCommand]

\starttext

\chapter{Some chapter}

\stoptext


Works only for headers shorter than one line.
