No, just that the support code to provide lua support probably is quite
a bit smaller than lua / people are likely to want it if they have lua
enabled - So it perhaps makes sense to enable it by default.

You could also argue that we should handle it automatically without a
sub option like we do for openssl, but that would be a bigger change.
