That's the whole point actually. Lua is what it is because the
authors can see the point in not doing such an easy addition.

With that said, I substituted !=, /* */, // and maybe more...

I would have preferred this to be standard Lua, but there is
no really technical reason for that. ~= is fine, # is fine.

With that said, any 'addition' to Lua like this is unwelcome.
A complete substitution would be acceptable, but wrong(tm).
