Your concern doesn't make any sense. Any package manager has to modify LUA_PATH in order for require to work with it in that way (unless it installs libs in /usr/local/lua, which requires admin privileges and isn't portable to Windows). luapower surely does this already, adding "luapower/?/?.lua" to the path instead of "luapower/?.lua" is a one-line difference. It's completely tangential to the criticism I gave.
