    There used to be an alternative runtime for FreeBSD called CloudABI [1], with which native programs could be started in capability mode, but it was discontinued in favour of WASI [2] (server-side Webassembly) — which adopted CloudABI's libc API.

    Agreed re: the general idea, but isn't CloudABI in particular superseded somewhat by WASI? Its repo seems to say it is: https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi

    (WASI is similarly capability-based, as I understand it!)
