a quick way out: 

\setuplabeltext
  [sl]
  [chapter={{},{.}}]

\starttext

\chapter{whatever}

\mainlanguage[sl]

\chapter{whatever}

\stoptext

(we can extend that to other numbered things

it is no problem to provide some language dependent conversion handling, but then i'd like to implement everything at once (i know that hungarian also has special demands). 

so ... best is t o start meking a 'document' with proposed extensions (to which other users can add their wishes); most of what you need, is not that hard to implement, but i'd like to do it all at once
