-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 There are two major issues with the Level-Loader. First, the error
 messages are not very conclusive, because we do not check what's written
 in the file. Second, a bit more specific, syntax errors in lua are
 devastating for the loader. Especially if the code is commented out, lua
 still yields errors, which it should not.

 Example (this yields to unreadable XML code for the XML-Loader):
 {{{
 #!xml
 ...
 <!-- <?lua end >? -->
 ...
 }}}

 Your task is to catch the most common errors and yield more conclusive
 error messages to make the level development and debugging of errors in
 level loading easier.
