Bertrand,

I just send in a patch on the message with subject "patch for handling
headers_in and headers_out as tables in mod_lua" which takes knowledge
of setting headers_in, headers_out off the request which, with that
patch, can just push the apr_table_t as a boxed pointer allowing
lua-style [] access and modification.

Does that work?
