so this is a purely technical review.

This isn't what I meant when I wrote

I meant that in the first patch you should just move these functions to
the top-level, without doing ANY changes to them, otherwise the patch
will be rather difficult to review.
Anyway, I don't think the piece of syntax sugar you're trying to push
(passing the object to a class method implicitly) is really necessary.
We never do it in schema.lua, why do it for space_mt/index_mt now?
And it's definitely doesn't belong to this patch. Please remove.

The test should go to patch 2, the one that exports the metatables.
