This seems like it's the only solution from your list that would be
generally applicable to similar future scenarios. I don't think the
users would have to be particularly trusted -- just make sure that the
runtime of the programs is limited, and that it's properly sandboxed
(is the Lua PECL extension sandboxed?).
That would be like adding a dependancy on Lua extension for reusers, as
the core templates will be implemented in Lua.
And I don't think worth reimplementing a Lua interpreter in php...
