This is the way LuaEclipse does it now to support code completion. But I'll
change that.

The problem is that you need the code loaded. This is acceptable in a
line-by-line interpreter, but not acceptable in an editor. I mean, we cannot
run the user code to provide support for code completion.

I considered writing a parser (in Java) and analyze the AST. I actually
updated JLua to support Lua 5.0. But I don't think this is the way to go
anymore. I think I will rely on the user to provide this kind of
information, maybe in a LuaDoc comment, or something like that.
