Hi,

you can try something like this:

\setuplayout[width=middle,backspace=4cm]

\startuseMPgraphic{line}
  drawoptions(withcolor \MPcolor{\framedparameter{framecolor}}) ;
  draw bottomboundary OverlayBox withpen pencircle scaled 3pt ; 
  setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ;
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[head:line][\useMPgraphic{line}]

\defineframedtext
  [framedHead]
  [align=right,width=fit,
   offset=overlay,boffset=.25ex,
   frame=off,framecolor=yellow:4,
   background=head:line]

\defineheadplacement
  [MyPlacement] [vertical]
  {\setwidthof{#1\hskip\leftmargindistance}\to\MyWidth\hskip-\MyWidth
   \startframedHead
     #1\hskip\leftmargindistance #2
   \stopframedHead}

\setuphead [chapter,section] [alternative=MyPlacement]

\starttext  \showframe
  \dorecurse{3}{
    \chapter{Chapter #1}
    \dorecurse{3}{\section{Section ##1}
      \dorecurse{3}{\subsection{Subsection}}
    }
  }
\stoptext

But I’m sure there are better solutions …

Best wishes
