i've implemented this using coroutines, it's in the CVS of Xavante.  (can you 
access it in luaforge? if not, i can send you a tarball).

i haven't used real continuations, but i've read a bit of them in Scheme.  i 
didn't find necessary to do multiple resumptions; but to be sincere, very few 
people have looked at that code, so maybe there are some desirable features i 
haven't thought about.

IOW, look at it, i'd love to get some feedback.
