[luatex] \input from Lua.

Hello all,
Is there a way to make TeX read a file from the Lua interface? The best
I can do is to issue:
tex.print("\\input{" .. file .. "}")
or something similar. But that is most inconvenient, and anyway it
doesn't work in an initialization script. (What I do in such a script is
register a function in "process_input_buffer" that returns the first
line prefixed with the desired \input statements, and then unregisters
itself at once. But that's horrible, it looks like a dirty trick!)
Best,
Paul
