Ah ok.  I'm not really bound to a specific syntax as long as
luaotfload at the end gets the correct data.

The problem is that luaotfload is not really maintained currently,
so it is difficult to improve its handling of lua-fonts. The current
setup has some problems with them:

I tried at first the {file:luafont.lua} syntax, but luaotfload
doesn't look in fonts/misc in this case (which imho is a more
logical place then tex/luatex), and also it constantly triggered the
rebuilding of the database. Absolute pathes found with kpathsea
looked like the way out -- apart from the problem with the colon.
i changed the parser for generic a bit so you need to check careful next beta as i'm only testing some basic plain loading

i have no clue how otfload locates files but maybe you need to add an entry to

local remapper = {
    otf    = "opentype fonts",
    ttf    = "truetype fonts",
    ttc    = "truetype fonts",
    cid    = "cid maps",
    cidmap = "cid maps",
 -- fea    = "font feature files", -- no longer supported
    pfb    = "type1 fonts",        -- needed for vector loading
    afm    = "afm",
    enc    = "enc files",
    lua    = "tex", -- LIKE THIS
}
