RE: Lua 5.1.1 has been frozen

[Timur Davidenko <timur@...>]

I`ll second that,
Ability to add custom metadata (or some kind of attributes like in C#)
That can be later accessed from C api.
Somehow like this:

SomeTable = 
{
	<UIType=int,UIMinRange=0,UIMaxRange=100>
	a = 1,
	<UIType=int,UIMinRange=0,UIMaxRange=100>
	b = 2,
	<UIType=Object>
	objname = "test.obj",
}

Having the ability to add metadata to variables would be a nice
addition.  This would make it easier to do static analysis of lua
scripts.  

## return_type = number ##
function sin (a, b)
	...		
end
