Thats fantastic.

I maintain the nodejs bindings for foundationdb. Foundationdb refuses to publish a wire protocol, so the bindings are implemented as native code wrapped by n_api. The code is a rat's nest of calls to methods like `napi_get_value_string_utf8` to parse javascript objects into C. (Eg [1]). As well as being difficult to read and write, I'm sure there's weird bugs lurking somewhere in all that boilerplate code. I've made my error checking a bit easier using macros, but that might have only made things worse.

I'd much prefer all that code to just be in rust. serde-v8 looks way easier to use than all the goopy serialization nonsense I'm doing now. (Though I'd want a serde_napi variant instead of going straight to v8).
