I don't know what you mean with "directly map", but about nesting, how
about:

s" Hello" name B P type

for your Lua example.  And that's postfix, not prefix.

Yes, I am currently working on something like that:

... HTML stuff ... <forth> Forth code that outputs HTML </forth> HTML stuff

Of course in between <forth> and </forth> your library stuff would
still be useful, but apart from a few examples I am going to leave
