The eID calls were meant as a light weight method to retrieve
information from the server. For example to get information for an
auto-complete field.
This is the reason why you have to initialize the database connection,
initialize the frontend user, etcetera if you need them. All to keep the
basic eID script as light weight and fast as possible.
If you want to render content or parts of pages it would be far easier
to implement a new page type which doesn't output the normal head part,
body tag, etcetera.
Just use TypoScript to define a new PAGE object, set a different type
number for it, configure it to output only content and you're in business.
The JavaScript can just call a page with your new type number and you'll
get the output you want.
