The Lua list has usually been open to other languages, especially
Lua-inspired languages, whether the inspiration is buried in the VM or
in the exported semantics. Dao does feel more like Python, with its
lists, maps and tuples. Lua tables are really the most powerful and
flexible data structure out there, with _special cases_ being lists
and maps!
Besides, guys, it's a slow news day ;)
