It is in the works and I would love if you find the time to review it once it's up on Gerrit (which should happen this week).
Lua scripting is indeed a big deal for us at Wikidata — structured data from Wikidata is available as JSON which can be thrown around and iterated over as Lua tables. This has the potential to unleash some niftyness in Wikidata-based Infobox templates.
To expand on what Jens said: There'll be two main ways to include Wikidata's data in Wikipedia articles. For the simple ones there'll be a template-like syntax and for the more complex things Lua will be the way to get it. The syntax for the former is at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes/Inclusion_syntax_v0.2
Sorry current version is at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes/Inclusion_syntax
