I am happy you posted early when things are still fluid.

A fast scripting language that is not a PITA, and not tied to a proprietary ecosystem, could carve out a place.

But please ensure that something like destructors remain possible and uncrippled. There are so many more kinds of resources to manage than memory, and we are beginning to accumulate many kinds of memory, too. When you have a solution for general resource management, memory management itself becomes a trivium, or gets locally tunable.
