This I’d like to have in Context, too.

You want the “compress” switch in placeregister, or indicate
ranges with \{start,stop}register:
········································································
\defineregister [demo] [demoes]
\starttext
\demo{Demoitem} foo
\page[yes]
\demo{Demoitem} foo
\page[yes]
%%% Here’s the range; should work without “compress”
\startregister[demo][demorange]{Demorange}
\demo{Demoitem} foo
\page[yes]
\demo{Otheritem} bar
\page[yes]
\demo{Otheritem} bar
\page[yes]
\stopregister[demo][demorange]%% <= you’ll need to explicitly terminate the
ranges so they can overlap
\demo{Otheritem} bar
\page[yes]
\demo{Demoitem} foo
\page[yes]
\demo{Demoitem} foo
\page[yes]
%%%% Here’s the relevant bit:
\placeregister [demo] [compress=yes]
\stoptext
········································································
Btw. have you read the small print:
