I will think about that. If there I (or someone else) can come up with
an elegant and generic way to do it, I will gladly incorporate it.

I am already working on this issue. I am planning to add an exception
handling mechanism to NSE but the details of its working are not yet  
set. I
am welcoming ideas on this topic. I am thinking about using and  
extending
lua's built in exception handling mechanism. Fyodor thought that NSE
might provide default exception handling code for common exceptions.
This however is something which will happen only after I clean up and
finish the NSE documentation.

cheers
Diman
