If you use "/LV 5.2" then 5.2 must be preinstalled. If bundling 5.2 also, then the whole runtime discussion starts over again.
Imo there is only one way to resolve that; let LuaRocks include its own copy of Lua, so it is fully self containing (the lua executables reside somewhere in the LuaRocks\2.0\ filepath, and when LuaRocks is run, it uses those). Modify installer; 1) Lua must be pre-installed (either 5.1 or 5.2) otherwise you get an error 2) Through an optional switch the installer copies the bundled Lua executables into a system wide Lua installation. But this should then be an explicit switch. That would resolve the entire runtime discussion.

I'm in favor of bundling Lua 5.2 as well, for completeness and ease of use, but that will require tweaking install.bat (and also choosing some binaries -- I just checked and LuaBinaries was not updated for Lua 5.2.2 yet).
