There are a couple of ways [beware of spacing screw up]
\setuphead[Topic][incrementnumber=no]
\Topic{David Ricardo (1772--1823)}
\writetolist[Topic]{}{Whow}
so, now the Topic command will not write to the list but you can. You can
package this as:
\def\MyTopic#1#2%
{\Topic{#2}\writetolist[Topic]{}{#1}}
\MyTopic{David}{David Ricardo (1772--1823)}
A prelude to a more general mechanism is the following [i seem to have lost
some code]
\let\Them\secondoftwoarguments
\setuplist[Topic][textcommand=\let\Them\firstoftwoarguments]
\starttext
\Topic{\Them{Ricardo}{David Ricardo (1772--1823)}}
\stoptext
which is a space safe operation.
