Shared-/User-Libararies tab

[BuckarooBanzay]

A tab with per-user or global ingame libraries and snippets

TBD:

• who sees who's code
• who can manage global code and snippets
• performance? (maybe precompile)

I really should get working on my lua sandbox library mod thing... I had a similar idea to this before, but more like a github gist type thing, where you can share and copy code, or keep private snippets.

Merging the idea with libraries is an interesting idea, instead of having to copy the code you could load it with a custom require function. It is possible to have a safe loadstring function too.

no pressure, i have some cleanups ready to commit but i don't get to work on this feature right now :)

Not sure about the implementation but i would use the mod-storage as a library with per-user prefix (code/BuckarooBanzai/my-awesome-library for example) and maybe allow search/lookup somehow...
