I agree with all the points. It's been long time since I last used lua and only positive memories remained :) I used it for adding scripting in the apps I worked on and the experience was very good -- sandboxed from the start, decent performance. Perhaps having 0-based indexes would've been bad for our users but I don't think they used arrays at all.
