I finally got around to having a look at this Lua update. Not having seen any of the communications on the subject, I'm more intrigued than enlightened at this point, so I'm interested to find out more.

I notice the absence of the huge glut of parsers for origin and occupation categories. There has been a lot of bloat in that area on the Character template, and they've been in need of a clean up for a while. Is some of that functionality being retained?

Seeing as a significant update looks to be in the wind, I thought it might be worthwhile to note another thing that the Character template never handled well, which was bullet lists in places like the Powers and Abilities section. eg. slip this into a character page...
 * Powers                 =
 * Superhuman strength
 * Superhuman durability


 * Abilities              = Exceptional combatant

...and the "Abilities" h3 heading picks up the list indent when ideally it should be on the left in line with the other subheadings. I've found that templates before the {{#if: parsers resolve that little quirk, but there might be a better way of dealing with it that I hadn't thought of.
