Description

As Lua 5.4 release is slowly getting closer, there's a list of features that would be nice to have in it:

  • #94, but with new warnings system.
  • <toclose> support for major things like objects. It should act like garbage collection, cleaning object. Any further access to object should result in an error.

While first feature isn't that important, second one would be very useful to have.
