Thank you, Wolfgang, this works; apparently, the chapter has to be set with \startchapter … \stopchapter and footnotes after \chapter won’t be flushed unless \startchapter \footnote{something} \stopchapter.
This makes sense to me. I guess, internally \head (e.g. \section, \chapter etc.) is simply not “converted" to \starthead ... \stophead before the next invocation of \head or the end of \stoptext?
