My understanding is that SIMD support has a proposal that most people are happy with, and will be landing in 2018.

Right now there are SIMD prototypes in 3 engines (SpiderMonkey, ChakraCore, and V8) and the remaining work is standardization between them, tool support, and performance tuning. There will be an official SIMD proposal for WASM in 2018 and it should move through the standardization process pretty quickly.
