Well, nodejs was kinda: lol, what happens if you put v8 js engine inside a c++ event loop? Now, some years later, deno is more like: ok, we know what happened.

Now, some years later, deno is more like: ok, we know what happened. But now browser js have some new apis we could (should) re-use (modules, fetching resources) - and this typescript thing looks good. So what if we put typescript inside a rust event loop, and surfaced some of the sandboxing ideas that browsers use (eg: no file system access by default)?
