When I used `\placefigure`, ConTeXt often puts the figure on a completely

exactly where called, even if that means having to place it on a new page with 
lots of space before it or even a new page afterwards? I need it to show up in 
the order it was called. I think `\setupexternalfigures[location=]` should 
provide the solution, but cann't figure what is the correct location, I'm not 
seeing that in the manual anywhere.

Use the force Luke...

e.g.
\placefigure [force] [fig1] {Caption} {\externalfigure [filename.png]}

The location= option is for where on the page (e.g. in a margin, in the main 
text) the picture will go, the actual page it appears on is controlled by 
'here' or 'force' or the default which is to float along until it finds what it 
thinks is a good place.

Not really. "here" and "force" are just options for location, i.e.
location={here,force}
should mostly do what you want.
