In Free (Libre)/Open Source projects, users are encouraged to 
contribute to improve the projects. You can grab LuaX and add 
SDL_gfx, for instance, then contribute your changes to Asko Kauppi 
so that others can benefit. We aren't paid, and we don't have a 
lot of time, so don't expect people to provide service to you. 
Instead, we hope that you will, in turn, add your efforts to make 
projects a little bit better.

No big deal. In a FL/OSS community, valuable members are those who 
contribute. So, I now hereby encourage you to try your hand at 
extending one of the existing projects that suit your needs.
