OK, so I'm answering myself.  The problem is (I guess so at least) that
the second parameter somehow gets typeset "as a paragraph" - that is,
with full paragraph's width (=width of the whole column).  Since nothing
is said about centering, it is flush left.  This helps:

    \placefigure{none}{\hbox{
      \starttikzpicture[scale=0.5]
        \draw (0,0) -- (5,0) -- (4.5,6) -- (1.5,6) -- cycle;
      \stoptikzpicture
    }}

Maybe it's not very clean, but it seems to work.  If anyone has a
cleaner (more "ConTeXt-way-ish" solution), I'd be thankful for a hint.
