Thank you very much! Something else happens:

\applytosplitstringwordspaced\somemacro{Content and {\tt typewriter} more
content}

either ignores braced groups or ignores macros AND prints braces "{" and
"}" as if it were in verbatim mode depending on the content being on the
document or loaded via Lua, even when context.escape is used. How to keep
{\it braced content}? Thank you in advance.

Jairo :)
