Why not, if all else fails, do a run of the completed matter to see what
the pagination would be, then do something like:
\newif\ifhidden
% Uncomment this if you want to hide content.
% \hiddentrue
\ifhidden
% . . . preferrably use ConTeXt-friendly pagination
% commands; this was taken from a plain old TeX file.
% Shove in white space or \phantom{} boxes with dummy text of
% equivalent length; ConTeXt likes its own \blank{} macro.
% Raw TeX stuff can mess up pagination and spacing.
%
% I'm not sure if a \vbox to <dimen> {} works well or not here.
% Just try a few ways to see.
\else
% Put all your usual content here.
\fi
It's a kludge, but it should work in a pinch.
