Hi Gerben,

Sorry for not having been more cautious: what I sent you works fine with mkiv, 
but somehow in mkii giving a style for your  list of « chaptertext » spills 
over to the list of « chapter »…

The following seems to give your desired result in mkii:

\definelist[chaptertext]
\setuplist[chaptertext][pagecommand=\gobbleoneargument]
\define[1]\ChapterAbstract{\writetolist[chaptertext]{}{\start\itx#1\stop}}
\starttext

\placelist[chapter,chaptertext]

\chapter{This is a chapter}

\ChapterAbstract{This is a small description of this chapter: \input ward }

\input knuth.tex

\stoptext

Best regards: OK
