Can we get a thread metatable?
debug.setmetatable(co,{__len=function(thread) return "abc" end})
print(#co) --> abc
I think the OP wants
 debug.setmetatable(co,{__index=coroutine})
so that he can say co:resume().
 Or
 debug.setmetatable(
 co,
 {
 __call = function(co,...)
 return coroutine.resume(co,...)
 end
 }
 )
so that we can say
 co()

And how do you get the status with that?
Not co:status(), that wouldn't work...

By using both __call and __index.
__call and co() makes it look like a function call, which may be kinda
confusing. On the other hand OOP syntax co:resume() is more Lua-like, as
strings have it too. You also cannot index functions.
 Yes you can.
	function foo(x)
	 return 3 * x + 5
	end
	mt =
	{
	 __index = function(obj,idx)
	 local d = string.dump(obj)
	 return d:sub(idx,idx)
	 end
	}
	
	debug.setmetatable(foo,mt)
Try it without debug.
	
	print(foo[3])
	print(mt.__index[3])
 Granted, this is just a proof-of-concept that simply returns back the
bytecode for a function, but it's easy enough to do other things, say,
return upvalues, local variables, parameters, actual instructions (a byte
index of 3 here returns 'u', part of the Lua signature for a dumped
function:
