This is because you need to pass a list that conforms to what the 
builder expects and the callback that you use doesn't do that for you 
(after all, it also gets hbox content).

There is no 'callback sequence handler' for the par builder (currently i 
see no need for it, also given the extra overhead involved) but this 
what what you can do:

\startluacode
     function builders.paragraphs.constructors.methods.preroll_a(head)
         local result, info = tex.linebreak(head)
         tex.prevdepth = info.prevdepth
         tex.prevgraf = info.prevgraf
         return result
     end
     function builders.paragraphs.constructors.methods.preroll_b(head)
         local result, info = tex.linebreak(nodes.nuts.copylist(head))
         inspect(info)
         return true
     end
\stopluacode

\defineparbuilder[preroll_a]
\defineparbuilder[preroll_b]

\starttext
     \setmainparbuilder[default]   \input tufte \par \input tufte \page
     \setmainparbuilder[preroll_a] \input tufte \par \input tufte \page
     \setmainparbuilder[preroll_b] \input tufte \par \input tufte \page
\stoptext

The tex.linebreak function gets the properly prepared paragraph and can 
handle it then. On the to do is a to add a 'prepare' helper that adds 
the mandate nodes (par fillers etc) but even then one has to be careful 
where linebreak hackery is applied.
