Okay, I'll just remove it -- I've asked myself why it wasn't there in 
the first place...

Duh!  Sorry, a newbie mistake -- I'm working on a very complex 
application, and this is my first Lua experience.  I've added OOP 
features fairly easily, including the "overloaded" index event that 
actually adds members on demand, and I'm happy with them...

...but I do need to be able to track assignments to my objects.  Do you 
really imply that the Lunar structure does not allow for handling the 
__newindex metamethod?  I am not fluent enough to judge it just by 
reading the Lunar code...

Thanks again for your kind help.
