I must admit this looks much better! Thanks.
The same approach can be used also for small caps, but the result is not so
appealing. Especially I don't like the size of the 'stopper' (dot).
Btw, that case conversion can be eliminated using
\setuplabeltext[en][chapter=CHAPTER~]

Whereas this works for basic test cases, in my document it ends with an error:

! Argument of \147>flushright has an extra }.
How can I decode this message and fix the problematic location?

Inestead of small capitals for the chapter number you can use capitals in
combination with a smaller font size.
\setuplabeltext[en][chapter=Chapter~]
\setuphead
[chapter]
[alternative=middle,
style=\bfc,
numberstyle={\setcharactercasing[WORD]\kerncharacters[0.125]\bfa},
numbercommand=\groupedcommand{}{\blank[4mm]},
sectionstopper={.},

[NTG-context] Chapter numbering - applying several commands at once
Dear All,
in my book I'd like to precede my titles with the number formated as
'CHAPTER I.', e.g. roman numeral and all this small caped and also in bold
as the title itself.
In the following definition I can use either:
(1) \sc + \setcharactercasing - small caps + lowercased number (but not
bold)
(2) \smallcaps - bold small caps (but not lowercased number)
(3) \setcharactercasing - lowercased number (but not small caps)
Idealy I'd like to combine \smallcaps + \setcharactercasing, but this throws
an error.
I am also considering using just smaller font, but I am facing similar
problems as I cannot combine both the casing conversion and e.g. \bfb in
single \groupedcommand.
I prefer setting the upercased version of Romannumerals as I do not want
small roman literals in the TOC or bookmarks. Are there better ways to
accomplish this?
\definefontfamily[palatino][rm][Palatino Linotype][features={default,
quality}]
\setupbodyfont[palatino]
\setuplabeltext[en][chapter=chapter~]
\setuphead[chapter][
alternative=middle,
style=\bfc,
conversion=Romannumerals,
numbercommand=\groupedcommand{\sc
\setcharactercasing[word]}{.\blank[0.4cm]},
]
\setupcombinedlist[content][list=chapter, alternative=c]
\starttext
\completecontent
\chapter{Foo}text
\chapter{Bar}text

When you use this for units you can use the \unit command:

\unit{25 square meter}

Not all font provide small caps as font feature, there is still many (older and
newer) which use a separate file for them.

What a great improvement!
In sum 4 basic + 2 complementary (smallcaps, oldstyle) styles out-of-the-box
thanks to this simple definition! Moreover, these basic and complementary ones
can be combined easily.
Other OTF features needs to be declared though:
\definefontfeature[f:superscript][sups=yes]
and then used as written above:
25 m{\feature[+][f:superscript]2}
But it is not so big deal.
I suggest removing all font styles related descriptions in manuals, wiki
pages to some special place marked as obsolete and replace it with this simple
approach ending with a small note that if this is not applicable, there are
other, but deprecated, ways - with the appropriate hyperlink..

You can save a few lines in the font setup when you the new simplefonts code

Thanks for pointing me to this nice feature! This is even more robust.
All my font definitions are based on this example
http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Palatino_Linotype_under_MKIV
(with the help of ConTeXt Reference Manual where I didn't notice something
like this before).
In the light of this all examples on that page could be switched rather to
'feature' based styling to emphasise the power of this feature :-)

fonts.otf.enhancers.patches["^pala"]

Any idea?
patches are applied when a font is cached so you need to wipe the cache
after defining such a patch
there are several ways to apply patches runtime, see *.lfg files (and
also fonts-mkiv.pdf)

When you use a opentype font you can enable the small caps feature with the
\feature
command, there is no need for an additional font synonym.
\setupbodyfont[pagella]
