It was thus said that the Great Juris Kalnins once stated:

I didn't think of that (which may explain why lua_pushuserdata() doesn't
exist). But in the usage pattern I have going, the userdata is created,
passed to the coroutine for processing, and once the coroutine is done, I'm
done with the userdata.
The reason I'm using the userdata and not a lightuserdata is the former I
can attach a metatable to, which would simplify the Lua code a bit.
