We use Lua table format for data representation for various things, 
including our "Comp" (composition project) file format, our 
bin/library/asset tracking format, and other things.
Having said that, I found it necessary to modify it to allow for ordered 
tables (which would have equally been an issue with JSON of course), and to 
extend the allowed constant table and table constructor numbers allowed, as 
we were easily overflowing them with complex rotoscoping animations.
I'm not sure I can provide an external link to documentation for said 
formats; but I can provide some samples if you like?
