I think it's a good addition. We have been using varnish on high traffic servers and one of the reasons was that it had "vcl", a javascript-like language to define request handling logic. (With a lot smaller feature set and more domain specific. But powerful enough). Having javascript on nginx would provide a lot of config options for people familiar with it. I believe nginx already has Lua support so not a big deal anyway.

I agree. It will be more easier to write some custom request handling logic in Javascript.
