\starttext
A sentence\footnote{With a note.\note[footB]}\footnotetext[footB]{And
another.}
\stoptext

works for me, assuming I interpreted your wish correctly.

You did, indeed, interpret my wish correctly.  Thanks!

Unfortunately, this is buggy when faced with a more complicated example -- though I'm not sure whether the bug is in ConTeXt, or if it's because we're not using \footnotetext correctly. Consider the following:

  \starttext
  This%
  \footnote(Or that\note[footB], if you prefer.}%
  \footnotetext[footB]{Or possibly even the other\note[footC].}%
  \footnotetext[footC]{It could be something entirely different.}
  is a sentence with nested footnotes\note[footB]\note[footC].
  \stoptext

The footnotes themselves are numbered properly: 1, 2, 3. However, the references are not -- the \note[footC] reference within the second footnote produces a superscript 2 rather than a superscript 3 -- and the references to \note[footB] and \note[footC] at the end of the text both produce superscript 3's!
