One of the most crucial parts of betawidget is its scriptability. With the
core now stabilised it important to begin looking into adding Lua support.
Requirements:
* All widgets must be accessible from Lua; with all methods/functions
wrapped in a Lua-table.
* Support for Lua functions as event handlers for '''all''' widgets;
** will require a wrapper function in C to act as glue code.
* Must be able to subclass widgets in Lua — with these subclasses being
callable from C code (so Lua virtual methods).
** will require each widget to have a director subclass (as SWIG does
with Python).
There a still a lot of things that need to be worked out — be good if all
discussion could be attached to this ticket to make the details easier to
find when it comes round to actually implementing it.
