As Rici pointed out, Lua will pretty much handle things the way you'd like it to.

But, instead of reloading the same stuff over & over again and worrying about performance, why not simply keep better track of what's loaded into your state?

Using require (or a require-like mechanism) could prevent most of the reloading/redefining, I think.
