    I'm not sure if this is ever going to happen. I did make some progress in the initial design here (warning, very long): https://github.com/BurntSushi/nakala/blob/15d55b742c07a26944...

    But... I was not extremely confident in my design, and proving it out will likely take at least months of continuous work. I don't quite have that kind of time at the moment, and I ended up diverting to work on Rust's regex crate rewrite.

    Perhaps I'll revisit this idea some day, but probably not any time soon unfortunately.
