Regarding: table is a standard library containing functions that involve sequences. Those functions cannot be called using object-oriented syntax.

Sure you can - you just have to call setmetatable({__index=table},<your table>).  Doesn't work if you're using a custom metatable, but it works well for things like lists.

I can't speak for Dirk, but personally I'm just so used to gh-markdown
now. We need a converter.
