Perhaps you mean to say that you're waiting for a new scripting language to be created that's designed to be "almost Rust." That could be interesting! OTOH, the bindings for existing languages have matured significantly:

  - https://github.com/neon-bindings/neon
  - https://github.com/mre/rust-language-bindings

I definitely am thinking of something more Rust-forward. As Rusty as possible without having to worry about lifetimes, the borrow checker, whatever. Huge performance hit is acceptable, so long as it remains trivial to intermix the Rust+scripting code. Something that gives a smooth on-ramp to push the heavy bits into pure Rust if required. The Python+C strategy in a more integrated package.

It's Ocaml

You're very much describing the powershell -> .Net -> C# path so would be curious to hear your take there. There's also the mad lad support rust in .net https://github.com/FractalFir/rustc_codegen_clr/
