If I understand correctly, you are changing the category codes of the
Unicode characters when writing out to an auxiliary file, but only for
those Unicode characters that are defined. This leads the Unicode
character to be written out as a UTF-8 sequence. For the regular
output, the definitions given with \DeclareUnicodeCharacter are used
instead of trying to get a glyph for the Unicode character from a
font. If there's no definition given, then the character must be in
the font.
I don't know why you did it this way; maybe you could explain? Or if
my explanation above is incorrect, could you correct it?
There is a potential problem with changing the category codes of the
Unicode characters, in that any tokens that have already been read in
won't be affected, depending on the implementation. For example, with
@chapter é,
whether this works depends on whether the argument "é" was read before
or after the category codes changed. It would be less fragile to keep
the characters as active but make them expand to a token with category
code "other".
Using the character definitions built in to texinfo.tex with
\DeclareUnicodeCharacter may give less good results than using the
glyphs from a proper Unicode font.
