Thanks Kit-
  One top level question, maybe more directed at use of LUA is how to generate 
a unique ID or number inside of a plugin. I’ve checked the docs and don’t see 
any C++ bindings from TS exposed that would help, so it looks like its left to 
the LUA math library or using some value from the ts.client_request. 

Does that sound right? 

Also, if you have advice on specific tips for organizing scripts (1 hook per 
file or something like that) I would appreciate hearing it
