That is exactly my point. Multiple-shot continuations may be useful for
Scheme (although I haven't seen *convincing* evidence [1]), but not for
Lua, where side effects are the norm.
[1] The existence of several toolkits only shows that the technique
is useful for creating toolkits :) Whether it is useful for real
applications remains unclear.
