Questions are already answered after studying the code much longer.

It seems the query is already parsed when calling the MimeHandler.
I noticed that POST args are not handled?
NutHttpProcessPostQuery isn't called anywhere despite the fact that
it is compiled in and consumes code space.

It seems that it isn't possible.
I will just setup a few differend endings: .lua .xlua
It is a bit unfortunate that the input file is already opened, but
quite understandable that the interface is that way.
I will also need to verify if I can directly print to the socket stream
from within Lua instead of keeping the whole page in memory, but it is
ok for the beginning.
