Well, not exactly problems.  AFAIR the lua script has no access to
the higher level parsing functions like try_to_get_string() and
real_expression().  Thus you cannot use string variables or general
expression evaluating to strings or numbers.  Additionally no spaces
are allowed between the number and the dimension, i.e. "5in" is
allowed, "5 in" is not.

As far as I am concerned "fulldoc" should be renamed into
"standalone" to fit the corresponding option of the epslatex
terminal.

I agree with Mojca about the alias "tikz" for "lua".  Additionally
I'm not sure if "gnuplot.lua" is the right name for the TikZ
terminal...

These are of course minor issues.  Having an autoconfiscated version
would really help in testing.
