Check the issue tracker.  There are some applications that work
differently in pbx_lua than the do in extensions.conf.  Specifically any
applications that jump to a different extension or priority will behave
strangely in pbx_lua.  Goto (goto, gotoif, etc) is the most effected,
but you should not need to use Goto in pbx_lua as you have access to
better ways to manage control flow.  Beyond that, things should work
mostly as they do in extensions.conf.
