I think we most definitely need a lislike this. Also,
I think these extensions should also be able to be compiled in
statically as wel as dynamically, if that is possible. 
We would need a "fat" Lua distribution, based on the 
officila lua, together with all modules that are 
more or less portable. The "fat" Lua could then be geared
more towards standalone use, whilst the "official" lua 
remains focused on embedded use.
