I'd like to have a horizontal line extending from the end of the text on a line to the right margin. So far I've found \hrulefill and \leaders\hrule\hfill, but these draw a line that's flush with the baseline of my text — how can I get it to be vertically centered?

You can use the caption package to define a new caption format incorporating the rule; something along these lines:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
\usepackage{caption}
\DeclareCaptionFormat{myformat}{#1#2#3\hrulefill}
\captionsetup[figure]{format=myformat}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}[tb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{./fig/test}
\caption{`Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed
do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco
laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute
irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum
dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat
cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt
mollit anim id est laborum`}
\label{fig:test}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
Here's the result:
I used the demo option for the graphicx package in order to make my example compilable for everyone; do not include that option in your actual code.
As Timothy Li noted, Aditya's solution draws the line on every page. It is possible to define a header (or footer) that only appears on pages with content. For my purposes, I used a footer, but the following code could equally be applied to just the header:
\setuphead[chapter][
header=empty,
]
% Define the appearance for the section name in the footer.
\defineframed[FooterSection][
frame=off,
topframe=on,
align=flushleft,
width=\makeupwidth,
rulethickness=1.6pt,
location=bottom,
foregroundstyle=\tfx\ss,
height=broad,
top={\blank[small]},
]
% Define the appearance of the page number in the footer.
\defineframed[FooterPage][
frame=off,
location=bottom,
foregroundstyle=\tfx\bold\ss,
]
% Include the section name and page number in the footer.
\setupfootertexts
[\FooterSection{\getmarking[section]}]
[\FooterPage{\pagenumber}]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
\startstandardmakeup
\startalignment[middle]\tfa{Title Page}\stopalignment
\stopstandardmakeup
\setuppagenumbering[conversion=romannumerals]
\setcounter[userpage][1]
\completecontent
\stopfrontmatter
\startchapter [title=alpha] \stopchapter
\startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection
\startchapter [title=beta] \stopchapter
\startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection
\startchapter [title=gamma] \stopchapter
\startsection[title=alphasec] \stopsection
