Over and over again, oh please, can we stop with the non-lua stupidity?
There's nothing C++ could do more that Lua can't. It is all matter of interface - what we export to API and what we don't. And frankly, the Lua API is so far ahead that any other language will be severely lacking in features. That's what killed the Squirrel language support.
There are gonna be Lua-haters, same as there are Java-haters, and nothing there will change that. And of course we will get mostly the negative ones, because the positive ones will be happy that we do support Lua and won't bother.
