As a followup for those curious, I was able to find* a good solution for this.
Apparently you can just use rawset/table.insert and the folding
capture to insert values dynamically into the table. The key to this
is to use the anonymous group capture so that you can pass more than
two arguments to rawset. [Look at the "Name-value lists" example [1]
for inspiration.]
