No garbage collection? Attach a userdata object(your T*) as a hidden item in
the Lua table, associate a new tag value to the userdata, add a "gc" tag
method for that tag to your destructor_callback function. 

Lua will gc your table when it goes out of scope or there are no 
references to it. The gc runs into your userdata object and will call your
destructor_callback which deletes the object.

See my Luna code.
