Well, I want to avoid using tables because unique table value will
pass through too many type checks (similar to assert(type(arg) ==
"table")) in my code.
But given heavy "magic" smell of the suggested alternatives, I
probably would have either to bite the bullet and use table, or create
and bind my own newproxy()... Table would probably be more
LJ2-friendly... (when/if LJ2 would support 5.2).
