Hello, These are the sort of details that we are trying to address with the new bibliography subsystem. The APA rules (reference: Publication Manual of the APA, 6th edition) give many special cases, some of which can be a bit tricky.
The mkii/mkiv bibliography module that you are using does a good job but is not so sophisticated. The new mkiv rewrite is (unfortunately) still work in progress and is not quite "production" ready. The new subsystem was one topic of the recent ConTeXt meeting. You can continue to address bibliography questions to the list, or to me directly as I am presently working on this with Hans "in my spare time" (Luigi and Thomas are also actively involved). This does not solve your immediate problem, however.
