Noted. I thought these were mostly too vague and/or controversial to file
as enhancement requests.

It's definitely not my intention to alienate anyone. Is that because
some maintainers wouldn't know Python/Lua and wouldn't want to learn? Or
because they wouldn't be interested in Exim any more if it moved in this
direction? Or because it would annoy them?

Cheers, Chris.
