When you use the global whitespace settings in footnotes you get the
same space between each footnote entry. What can be done is to add a
whitespace key to setupnote which is easier than using
setups-environment.

Could this be a feature request then? So

\setupnote[whitespace=big,bidi=on]
I forgot that you can set the whitespace also with the style-key from
\setupnotation.

\setupnotation[footnote][style={\setupwhitespace[line]}]

\starttext
\input ward\footnote{\input{knuth}}
\stoptext

Many thanks. Although bidi is not technically a "style" option, and one may be accused of mixing apples and oranges here, decided to test - see attached and below:

=======
\setupdirections[bidi=global]
\setupwhitespace[big]
\setupnotation[footnote][style={\setupwhitespace[big],\setupdirections[bidi=global]}]

\starttext
\definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt]
Test امتحان test \par Test امتحان test
\startfootnote
\definedfont[file:almfixed.otf*arabic at 14pt]
Test امتحان test \par Test امتحان test
\stopfootnote{}
\stoptext
=======

Why does bidi=global get applied to the second paragraph of the footnote, but not to the first?
