I'm currently working on the Wikidata project to

I've toyed around a bit and extended LuaCommon.php with a getEntities
function and a wikibase table to hold that function. Now I wonder if
there are any plans for Lua extensions outside the mw.* namespace.
I'm wondering if some of the specialized functionality can be avoided by
fetching JSON data from wikibase / wikidata through a web API. This
would be more versatile, and could be used by alternative templating
systems.
