Squirrel(
http://squirrel-lang.org/) is a scripting language heavily inspired by lua and c++. I'm convinced this would be an excellent alternative scripting language, so we should probably take chances to implement it.
Discuss.
As awesome as squirrel sounds, I fear it won't hold up to the more popular scripting languages. Adding it would be a lot of effort for what could possibly be very little.

The only downside (IMO) is that Lua has crappy support for classes, while Squirrel natively supports classes. So I do want to give it a try :o
It sounds like it's worth giving it a whirl.

I'm kinda stuck at trying to call functions from C++ on class objects within Squirrel

I've seen posts about it on their forums, but without answers.
