Hi Kip ...
I had a similar problem with a bibliography. Supervisor of thesis wants
to have a bibliography in a specific format (sorted AMS like) in which
it can not produce the ConTeXt.
Maybe this is just because I am a bit stupid and I could not correct the
bibliography in ConTeXt and run something similar to what I wanted none
of the conference met, so no one could help me. I finally after many
hours of experiments on all bibliography resigned and I made myself a
simple tool for typesetting bibliographies. But it is only a virtue of
necessity and bibliography entries I we entered all on the line (ie,
exactly how it should look in the list of bibliography), ie. I do that
without specifying a style author = someone, title = foo, etc. That is
to say that if you do not need to have the bibliography in the format in
which we would expect from BibTeX, so I suggest to do it my way (I mean
the format of bibliographic entries in text, sorting items, etc..) All
of this can be done in Lua. In printed form, nobody will know that this
is actually done "manually" without "BibTeX" ...
Originally I thought that I can not do, but eventually everything turned
out well. It is true that the bibliographic citations in the work is not
so much (about a hundred).
Good luck.

You need to clarify two things here:
1 You want to map the “\cite” macro to something like
“\footcite”?
Either by mapping \cite, or by using some other macro, yes.
Have you tried something along the lines of this
\let \goodoldcite \cite
\unexpanded\def\cite#1{\footnote{\goodoldcite{#1}}}
Yes, it doesn't work though. All I see are footnotes that contain
"(Xxxxxxxxxx, 0000)". But maybe I am not using it properly. I just use
\cite[reference] and that is what I see.
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:

Ouch. So basically no footnote citations like in most of the books I
read. You'd think there would just be a \cite[everything] option?
Hth. Anyways, you’re right, the native Context bib support is not
really fulfilling.
