Hi Daniel,
have you tried Taco’s Lettrine module?[1] It should do the job
and allows special handling of quotation marks as well:
···8<····························································
\usemodule[lettrine]
\starttext
\lettrine{“A}{} \input knuth
\blank[line]
\lettrine[Ante={“}]{A}{} \input knuth
\stoptext \endinput
···>8····························································
