Anything that attempts to mitigate that in one way or another is to be welcomed.
From browsing the docs[0], CLIP OS looks like an interesting project. However, I do question how much of it is.
One of the more interesting approaches using containerization in recent years is sandstorm.[0] It's unfortunate it wasn't a commercial success, because a lot of the ideas in there would go a long way to mitigating the majority of breaches that can occur at the userspace level.
In sandstorm, web apps are containerised in a really minimal environment. Each app only has access to files it operates on. There is no procfs or sysfs. All communication with the outside world takes place through a unix socket that is opened by the supervisor.[2]
