After some experimentation, it became clear that to place the local
notes properly, one must use \note[...] and \footnotetext[...]{}, and
put the series of \footnotetext entries just before
\placelocalfootnotes.

I need a table that has local notes, but have not been able to get
them into the proper position (at the left margin of the table) or
the the proper length ( extending full length of table if needed).
What am I missing in the following reduced example?
\starttext
\startlocalfootnotes[conversion=character]
\placetable[][]
{}
\placelegend
{\starttables[|p|p|p|p|p|p|]
\NC numbers
\NC (*) \footnote{This is the first footnote.}
\NC stuff \footnote{This is the second footnote.}
\NC stuff\footnote{This is the third footnote.}
\NC more stuff\footnote{This is the fourth footnote}
\NC and yet more \NC\SR
\HL
\stoptables}
{\placelocalfootnotes}
\stoplocalfootnotes
\stoptext
