Add LuaSandbox (for MediaWiki)
In the early 2010s, to offer better support for logic and faster processing, MediaWiki started supporting Lua through the Scribunto extension. Scribunto has grown out to become a mature, well-maintained and popular solution (it is, for instance, heavily used on Wikipedia, to mention the best known wiki), but those on shared hosting currently have to miss out. Please let the next version of Plesk ship.with LuaSandbox (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/LuaSandbox, https://pecl.php.net/package/LuaSandbox), the safest way to run Lua code.
LuaSandbox is a PHP extension that is available as a PECL module. Since December 2022 (Plesk Obsidian 18.0.49) you can easily add such PECL extensions to PHP from within Plesk. You can manage PHP extensions in your "admin" account in Tools & Settings > PHP Settings > choose the desired handler > Manage PECL Packages.

Many thanks for your answer. I don't think I have a separate "Tools & Settings" link and the PHP Settings for individual domains don't show anything about handlers or PECL packages.
