EDIT: Previously titled "How to make HTTP requests with rlua?"

(Can't really find a more appropriate place to ask this question, if there's a better place, please point me to it!)

I'm trying out different crates that add scripting support, because I want to make a plugin system for my program that can add features without me having to expose them from the program (I want to keep the program minimal). The rlua crate is one of the ones I'm considering, but it seems like it lacks modules like http or socket in order to make requests.

This is one of the examples I could come up with of features that I don't see the point in adding to my program and then exposing for plugins to use if I'm never going to use that feature in the un-modded program.

Is there something I'm missing or is this outright impossible?
