> Neovim's Lua support can't yet do a lot of this stuff natively

That's the reason a DSL is usually better in these cases; I've used lua for scripting game engines before but I don't think it's a good choice for a text editor, especially an established one like vim.

If you use anything more complicated than toggling settings and autocmd's in your vimrc, I suggest you take a look at `vim9script`, it really is an enormous improvement.
