I haven't done anything with Lua before, but I'm not sure why that would be needed over dialplan for the example shown, and this doesn't meet the main objective of the patch which is a *function*. Gosub is off-limits since it's clunky at best with the intended use cases. For instance, say you want to pass five lookups into an application without first saving them as variables. This is not possible when Gosub becomes involved.

EVAL will also parse EXTEN as the extension of the calling context, not the called context, making EVAL unsuitable as well.
