Is this *EVER* going to be released?

Yeah but why restrict yourself to using 65535 possible values of an integer while you could have 65536?! :P
Seriously though, I guess it really depends on what you're used to. I'm mainly a c++ chap and I find it a really annoying pain in the butt to keep in mind lua starts to count from 1.

Which is especially annoying if you got an azerty keyboard like me. Fun fact: To get a ~, you have to actually press ~ twice (which is done by pressing alt gr + a button next to right shift, so you gotta move both hands real far) and then backspace to remove the one it typed too much.

It's not that idiotic... it looks less messy to me that way... again, though, they're a pain in the butt to type with azerty, because they're another goddamned alt gr combination.
(Curse you, France! Cuuuuurse youuuuuu!)

Heh, my guess is you and I can't live apart much further than 100km, though sometimes it seems like there's a whole planet between us :P
I guess you just can't have dEUS and QWERTY...

Yep, it is pretty low (and do not mistake it with C++).

Thanks for calling C/C++, Java, C#, Perl (and lots of other) unreasonable ;) . Think of table ID as the offset.
:P

Beethoven's Offset 8 symphony?

E.g. In C/C++ the first element has the same address as the table itself. The second has the same address + 1 * offset. The third has the same address + 2 * offset.
I bet you know about that :) .
