A Rust unikernel sounds very tempting for embedded stuff. Anyone doing that?

I'll add that it probably should be done. Aside from usefulness, it's already been done for Ada and embedded Java on top of partitioning microkernels. There's companies actually paying for these. The dynamic or concurrency safety of Rust might be appealing for some of them. Any money made there can go back into improving the project/product.
