Hi Robin,

I tried to make something working and came to the following three
methods to draw a rule under the header at the whole pagewidth.

If you use ConTeXts default layout with different margins you should
use bigger values for the rulewidth than only pagewidth.

\setuplayout[location=middle,cutspace=\backspace,width=middle]
%\setuppapersize[A5][A4]
%\showframe

\startuseMPgraphic{headerrule}
setbounds currentpicture to unitsquare xyscaled (\the\paperwidth,\the
\headerheight); draw (0,0)--(\the\paperwidth,0);
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay
  [headerrule]
  [\useMPgraphic{headerrule}]

\defineoverlay
  [headerrule]
  [\vrule height\headerheight width0pt%
   \vrule width\paperwidth height 0.4pt\relax]

\defineoverlay
  [headerrule]
  [{\framed[width=\paperwidth,height=
\headerheight,frame=off,bottomframe=on]{}}]

\setupbackgrounds
  [header]
  [text]
  [background=headerrule]

\starttext

\input knuth

\stoptext
