This is by design. This is what is happening:

\usemodule[visual]

\defineitemgroup[questions]

\starttext
This numbered list uses my item group \quotation{questions.} The itemize inside 
is missing space above item (a).
\startquestions[n][inbetween={AAA}]
  \item \fakewords{15}{20}
    \startitemize[a][left=(,stopper=,right=),before={BBB}]
      \item \fakewords{10}{15}
      \item \fakewords{10}{15}
    \stopitemize
  \item \fakewords{10}{15}
\stopquestions

This numbered list uses itemize. The itemize inside has the expected space 
above item (a).
\startitemize[n][inbetween={AAA}]
  \item \fakewords{15}{20}
    \startitemize[a][left=(,stopper=,right=),before={BBB}]
      \item \fakewords{10}{15}
      \item \fakewords{10}{15}
    \stopitemize
  \item \fakewords{10}{15}
\stopitemize

\stoptext

Note that in the first case, the inbetween does not get inserted at the start 
of the nested itemization (because, ConTeXt doesn't think that they are nested 
as the names are different). But the before key of the nested itemization 
doesn't get inserted in both cases because ConTeXt thinks that the itemization 
is nested!

You can change this behavior by using:

\unprotect
\c_strc_itemgroups_spacing_mode\plusone
\protect

in which case both outputs are similar. 

@Hans: Does it make sense to add a setups key to \setupitemize to keep such 
changes local?
