it's more like to get conflicts in allocated registers or macro names
like \temp and such
pity if you would have to use \latexluanewthing with latex3 and
\ctxluanewthing with context and \memluanewthing in latex2e when
using the memoir class and \komaluanewthing when using a KOMA-class.
well, latex and context macros don't mix anyway so there is not much
change for a clash there -)
