I actually agree with you; these are serialization issues that are very important to solve. I wrote a little about endianness and how it could be approached in the book FAQ [1]. rkyv's open type system enables a lot of really powerful extensions to the core library.

I'm not personally interested in adding support for other languages, but I have been careful not to do anything that would make it especially difficult for someone else to do so. There's no reason why it being language-specific is so bad either, especially if it can take advantage of unique features to make it more expressive and performant.
