Given that webassembly support is slowing rollin out and given that everyone is supporting it (browser vendors), does that mean in the future we can add support for native libraries in node by compiling them to webassembly?Native binaries can often be annoying between version changes and needing rebuilds, so would webassembly allow us to compile portable and platform agnostic native modules? Or is this beyond the current specs of webassembly when it comes to node context?I know that there’s definitely a performance hit if the above approach is possible but for most projects (small-medium) I would say it’s worth the sacrifice for the ease of development it might lead to....What do you all think?
