It seems, that this workaround solves the problem:
\setupquotation[before={\setcharacterspacing[reset]}]
The quotation environment doesn't rely on the characterspacing mechanism
to add the spaces before and the after the quotes but uses language
dependent skips.
The example below shows how it works and where it fails when you use
characterspacing. Resetting spacing (and probably other settings like
charcterkerning etc.) when the quotes are added as you noticed fixes the
problem.
%%%% begin example
\starttext
\dontleavehmode
\hbox{«\hspace[fr][quotation]}%
xxx%
\hbox{\hspace[fr][quotation]»}
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
\dontleavehmode
\hbox{«\hspace[fr][quotation]}%
xxx%
\hbox{\hspace[fr][quotation]»}
\dontleavehmode
\hbox{\expand\everyresettypesetting\relax «\hspace[fr][quotation]}%
xxx%
\hbox{\expand\everyresettypesetting\relax \hspace[fr][quotation]»}
\stoptext
%%%% end example
What do you think about it? Is this the right way to do it?
I would use the symstyle key as hook to disable charcterspacing for the
quotes in the environment.
%%%% begin example
\mainlanguage[fr]
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
\setupquotation[symstyle=\resetcharacterspacing]
\starttext
«xxx»
\startquotation xxx\stopquotation
\stoptext
%%%% end example
