Look really good and clear syntax. The ability to use different table 
per family is really needed for mp-bgp and will be a killer feature.

Wow it was really a good idea. Even if the filter DSL is already good, 
lua open funny perspective (like dynamic filter using external source).
It reminds me when a colleague write the first lua module for opensips.
With this module we implement a very complex logic with ease.

Can't wait :)
