Would this allow Lua code to directly use Goroutines, and take advantage of Go's features for concurrency and parallelism?
I'd love to see a high-level language like Lua (or Python, Ruby etc.) with good threading support. Building a language runtime in Go might be a good way to get that support more easily?
While I'm wishing for things, could I have good single-threaded performance too? This would likely need a JIT, which unfortunately doesn't seem possible in Go at the moment [0].
Maybe I should give up on my desire for a high-level language and just use Go itself, where concurrency, parallelism and good performance are all available today...
