For anyone wondering the same thing, the answer is the .template
function. In the cbi file, I added these lines:
    qr = s:option(DummyValue, "note1", translate("Enter custom
access.conf variables below:"))
    qr.template = "fwknopd-qr"
and then add the needed html in appFolder/luasrc/view/fwknopd-qr.htm


It's funny, I searched for hours before asking here, and then found
the answer very soon after sending the email. Figures.
