A comment on Postgres WASM.

Can I have the opposite? I want to be able to run webassembly-based extensions in postgresql. I don't like writing C, and most postgresql languages offer too much (no sandboxing, need slow interpreters and shit). But a WASM based sandbox for creating custom functions for postgres in your favourite WASM-outputting language sounds very interesting
