gema is pretty awesome.  In the past I've worked with it, but found  
that it has some hazardous implications due to the fact that it is  
based on a one-shot application.

IIRR it uses exit/abort-style errors in certain cases for errors that  
would normally be perfectly fine when using gema as a unix-style  
stream processor. Embedding it using the Lua module can lead to  
undesirable problems.

If these problems have been resolved, that would be a great.
