This is a pretty wild concept, not that I disagree with it.
But when you think about it, we're asking a tool originally designed to browse documents on the web, to now execute what is essentially a (safe) binary application, and not to let it connect to the internet, while inside a document in a web browser.
I can't see how the future of the desktop is not going to be radically shaped by WASM, in whatever form that takes.
Agree 100%, next few years of webapps are going to be revolutionary. WebAssembly gaming in particular is going to disrupt Steam on PC, and the App Stores on mobile. Our startup is working on this btw
