Before spending time adding support for additional languages, I would wait for someone to demonstrate their need and willingness to pay for this feature.
I have read some interesting things about Python being used in the maths/science worlds (NumPy/SciPy being great examples), but have never heard of Ruby or JS being used in this context. So I think a lot of web devs will say "It should support Ruby/JS/whatever" - but how many of those people are actually going to pay for the site? Is there any reason to support these languages other than the cool factor?
Adding support for VBA would probably help bring a lot of corporates over to your site, although I really feel for whoever ends up coding that! :-)
This is a great site btw, lovely logo/design, and a fantastic piece of tech behind it. I could see this being bought by Google and folded in to Spreadsheets.
