Yes, I notice that rockspec_version is an optional field, currently
"1.0". LR will even tell you to upgrade if this is explicitly set to
some other value.

Which brings us to another interesting possibility: delivering LR
upgrades via LR itself.

At the very least, configure should try to detect an existing
installation (assumed to be working?)

For LR post 2.x, then 'luarocks install luarocks' is completely
possible, if done with care.

Anybody interested in such an experiment?  There would be a
luarocks-2.0.3 and a luarocks-scm rockspec available for eager
beavers.

PS. reading code is often a source of pleasant suprises. For instance,
the source.url field can point directly to a .lua or .c files and
things just work.
