the problem is that you effectively use buffers so you have a different
catcode regime ... i'm not sure what you want but thsi might give a clue
\starttext
\defineblock[foo]
\beginfoo
test 1
\endfoo
\startluacode
buffers.assign("temp","test 2")
structures.blocks.save("foo",nil,nil,"temp")
\stopluacode
\useblocks[foo]
\stoptext
there are mechanisms for templates for constructing more meaningful
content than "test 2" (see test suite)
