gollark: It could probably also do that. I don't know if it would interact nicely with the coroutine thing.
gollark: i.e. like writing synchronous code, but the coroutine yields while an asynchronous call happens
gollark: Oh, and the Lua scripting environment would use Lua's cool coroutine model to do async *pleasantly* without magic keywords all over the place.
gollark: This is just CSS but nesteder, which we already have with SASS/SCSS.
gollark: This would also mean that you could simply copy an existing... LML... page into a LuaScript thing for your site with no changes. How nice.
