The same applies to your examples because your test won’t work on our machines ;) > Is there no way to do it with \processaction? Only when you ensure the text you get from Lua has the normal cathode regime and when you special characters like \ in the result you have to convert them to \letterbackslash etc. which isn’t simpler than Hans solution. The advantage of Hans solution is that you don’t have to care about expansion.
