I once used some cheating:
\startuseMPgraphic{LineBack}
draw (\overlaywidth,0)--(0,\overlayheight);
\stopuseMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[LineBack][\useMPgraphic{LineBack}]
followed by
\setupTABLE[c][1][width=2.6cm]
\setupTABLE[1][1][background=LineBack,align={flushleft,low}]
\bTABLE
\bTR
\bTD \hbox to 2.5cm{{\setbox0=\hbox{first}\wd0=0pt\box0}\hfill
\raise1.1\bodyfontsize\hbox{second}} \eTD
% ...
\eTR
\eTABLE
This is ugly and doesn't scale well (you need to adjust the
parameters), but it was the only possibility I was able to come up
with quickly.
