That's why I was gung ho enough to implement the lua stuff I did for it. Your future thread work wont impact this current project, or the next one for the same client that I know is coming soon (assuming he can find the funding). If there is some even more distant future project that I'm not aware of where this might be a problem, then I'll either suck it up and cope, or use an old EFL release.
