Hi Rik,
sorry for top-posting, but I’m not sure whether I understand your request.
I wonder whether the following sample points in the right direction:
\setuppapersize[A6]
\setuppagenumber[way=bypart, prefix=yes, prefixset=chapter]
\startsectionblockenvironment[bodypart]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\startsectionblockenvironment[appendix]
\setuppagenumber[number=1]
\stopsectionblockenvironment
\starttext
\completecontent
\startbodymatter
\dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Chapter}\recurselevel\index{bar}}
\stopbodymatter
\startappendices
\dorecurse{5}{\chapter{Appendix}\recurselevel\index{foo}}
\title{Index}
\placeindex
\stopappendices
\stoptext
Just in case it helps,
Pablo
