It is ok but I didn't want to put text "some text" there.


Try 3:
Workaround: I put a tilde "~" instead of "some text":

\starttext
\section{Hello}\index{Hello}
~ <- putting the tilde here
\page
\index{world}world
\page
\completeindex
\stoptext

Result 3:
hello 1 <- ok, with the tilde as a workaround
world 2

I don't like such tricks - is there a ConTeXt-way?

An index is bound to something, in most cases the next node (often a character) ... just try to imagine what happens when it it not bound:

  text

  <index entry node>

  text

Where do you expect a page break? And how robust can that be implemented? Normally you woudl expect the index to be bound to the second text (think of broken lines/words). So .. the index commands tries to bind to the following text.

\showstruts

\index{x}\strut
