APA is used in the humanities‽

You need to clarify two things here:

1 You want to map the “\cite” macro to something like
  “\footcite”? Have you tried something along the lines of this

    \let \goodoldcite \cite
    \unexpanded\def\cite#1{\footnote{\goodoldcite{#1}}}

  (untested)?

2 You want “\cite” to retrieve full citations? Assuming this
  requires that they contain the complete names of authors,
  editors and stuff, you might be out of luck. Last time I
  checked this was impossible to realize within the constraints
  of the bib module:

Hth. Anyways, you’re right, the native Context bib support is not
really fulfilling.
