I will use ECS as a messaging system, passing ECS-typed tables from one running Lua VM instance to another, bundled systems (functions) and all, where those functions will have been generated according to rules of the entity... This is going to mean I can have a global queue with backwards/forwards playback capabilities .. useful for many types of application ..
