I would like to indulge in a little bit of projection and in my case, some science fiction of my own.

Do people know I’m building an alternative to Electron and Tauri? Where you write typescript for the main and browser code and it just works. Has building, packaging, code signing, and update management built in. Bundles as small as 12MB and ship updates as small as 4KB? electrobun.dev
The Electron changes here are quite interesting. It's not "add full browser extension support to Electron". Is more like "add special limbo space where extension support and things like it are possible". github.com/electron/electron/pull/44411
