know if
(1) there is a more "standard" way (instead of using \phantom) of
uncovering the second item in the itemized list
See s-pre-60.mkiv for a javascript based stepper and s-pre-61.mkiv for
usage example (at the end).
Paul Isambert also has a javascript based stepper in the lecturer package
but that package does not work with ConTeXt MkIV.
Personally, I find javascript based steppers to be unreliable as they
don't work on all viewers. I either use \phantom or don't include the text
at all. (I posted my stepping macros on the list a few days back).
There was also an r-steps module on the wiki, but that is almost 8-10
years old, so it is unlikely that it will work without significant
changes.
(2) the progress meter can be modified to illustrate 3 (instead of 4)
total pages AND not have the progress meter change between pages 2 and
3 (since I want to view them as the same "page")
I don't know which counter the interaction menu uses. You can try to
decrement the userpage counter (\decrement[userpage]) and see if it works.
Ideally, each step should be a subpage and the userpage counter should
only increment on a new slide.
If you do not need the interaction part of the interaction menu, but just
need a visual progress meter, you can look at my visualcounter package:

For an example see http://www.ece.mcgill.ca/~amahaj1/talks/gerad-2012.pdf
(the theme is inspired from one of Hans's styles).
Thomas and I also use different progress meters in the simpleslides
module which are written in metapost. The visual-counter module is based
on the code in simpleslids, but is a separate module so it can be included
in other documents as well.
