Thanks, and I am sure that this entry into the wiki will be also helpful for others. For me it will be step by step, and using your information I can now at least get an author's name into the toc! But that's about all. Just know that when you say (in the new wiki addition) 'check on \rawstructurelistuservariable' that  link simply tells me 'There is currently no text in this page'. That leaves someone like me without a lot of the long-gained knowledge that others have, quite lost :-)

But I took your example and adjusted it for, say, a chapter which has just a title (no subtitle) and an author, and added, below what I already have in the preamble:

\define[1]\ChapterTocEntry{%
  \structurelistuservariable{author}\crlf%
  #1\crlf% title
  %\structurelistuservariable{subtitle}}%
}

\setuplist[chapter][
  textcommand=\ChapterTocEntry,
]

So, in other words I swapped the word 'section' in your example with 'chapter'. That now gives me in the ToC, something like the following:

One   Author name

         Title                        pg no.

Which is pretty much what I am after. Hooray! But how do I get that in reverse? And how do I get the word 'chapter' to also appear in front of 'One'? You see what I mean by needing step-by-step. Maybe there are not too many nearly 75+-year-olds still surviving Covid and working with ConTeXt! But I don't give up too easily, so let me just get this next step right with a bit of help.

Of course, I would prefer it to say 'Chapter One' not just 'One', so that is a 
minor problem I still have to resolve. But in fact, the publisher wants 
something quite different and I really do not know how to go about it. I did 
look at 'Author in ToC' in the wiki, but that referred me to a somewhat 
complicated Proceedings style, and given that my Chapters are all set up 
anyway, I just couldn't follow that. Am hoping there is some other way I can 
achieve the design that follows:

Foreword            Author's name        iii

Chapter One       Chapter title

                             Author's name       1

Chapter Two        1820-1880

                             Chapter title

                             Author's name       10
I just replaced the according section 
https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Table_of_Contents#Author_in_ToC for you.
