I uploaded an lmtx update (only m-mathfun added).
Attached a short description of this (windy stormy friday afternoon) math
experiment. The question is, what similar features using this trickery come to
mind.
Personally, I can see occasionally making use of this instead of
\ctxlua{myfunction(args)}. There is a similar library called pgfmath which is
part of the tikz package, which is used quite heavily by the pgfplots package
but also appears to be popular for other purposes:

I guessed right that you would be the first to to react! Anyway, I
suppose that you come up with additional demands like:
\permanent\protected\def\randomized{\thewithproperty\plustwo}
so that we can do:
$ \sin(x) = \randomized\sin{2pi} $
which i'm sure you can figure out by looking at the source.
