Is there some Lua authority out there who can provide feedback on this idea? How are Lua patches supposed to be reviewed around here?

In general, they aren't, at least not directly. Lua is open source but not open developed. Proposals are normally discussed in terms of ideas and concepts rather than as concrete code and patches (though example code may help facilitate the discussion).

From there, the Lua team (Roberto, Luiz, and one other person who I always forget because he never posts to the list) makes the decision on their own, often without announcement. If they choose to adopt a community-proposed idea, they will write their own implementation rather than use code from the outside.
