Just a thought, I'm thinking that perhaps the LUA patch should be put in
trunk for 2.x but not in 1.x. Also, to me it would make a bit of sense
to also remove the current scripting system in 2.x in favor of that
provided that the LUA engine can be supported on all platforms and is
built-in. While the old scripting system is nice, I would say it is
somewhat unintuitive and perhaps not worth keeping in 2.x if the LUA
engine is built-in.
