Initial Comment:
See the excerpt from a discussion with Oliver Buerschaper, below. That one uses
a \cite command, but it could also be a footnote, or an Author's name or a
wikipedia entry.
\setupquotation[right={''\footnote{First}}]
is not usable because it gets fed into \symbol[] and many things do
not work well in that case (the \footnote, for example, disappears).

Works like a charm! Thanks very much for the workaround ... I've
adapted it slightly so that the optional argument is treated as
generic text ... in order to use \cite[], \footnote{\cite[]} or
whatever else I need.
Could this optional argument perhaps be integrated directly in the
usual \startquotation command some day? I guess a lot of people will
need this ... every quotation calls for a proper reference ;-)
Cheers,
Oliver

Message:
I think that the reason for \cite and \footnote not working
is this because the parameter right is typeset inside a
\hsmash. For example see the output of
\hsmash{Footnote lost\footnote{test}}
I do not know why this is happening, but perhaps the
following may help a guru
\setbox0=\hbox{This is a test\footnote{Box Zero}}
\setbox1=\hbox{This is a test\footnote{Box One}}
\box0 %Only footnote mark is present
\unhbox1 %Both footnote mark and the footnote is present
One way to fix this is to redefine \rightdelimitedmark not
to use a \hsmash
\def\rightdelimitedtextmark
{\delimitedtextparameter\c!right}
% was {\hsmash{\delimitedtextparameter\c!right}}
I do not know why the \hsmash is there so this may break
something.
