Once I have something satisfying, I'll post the "RFC-like" draft and preliminary reference toolchain on HN (well, if I can since HN is going 'whatwg cartel' web engines only then I may be blocked for good). For the moment, I am 'testing' all that while writting my own wayland compositor for linux (that's why I will try to build mesa AMD vulkan driver for this format... or stick to wl_shm in the end).

Well, for a new executable and dynamic library format, the computer language syntax complexity and its runtime complexity do matter A LOT, c++ is massive pain, and since, if I am not mistaken, sqlite is going microsoft rust, that's bad omens since microsoft rust syntax seems to be now as brain damaged than c++ syntax... but with an even worse runtime (unless all that is not actually true, I have not checked). That said, ISO f*cked up C with things like '__thread' which requires some level of OS support.
