It reminds me of embedding <?php eval($_GET['x']) ?> into an image
file (which, due to comment fields, can still be valid) to pwn silly
servers that run static content through PHP. But I doubt there's any
server out there that runs its static content through Lua, especially
since Lua isn't designed to parse code embedded in documents and
otherwise pass them through to stdout. :-)
