The problem with multi-memory (and why it hasn't seen much usage, despite having been supported in many runtimes for years) is that basically no language supports distinct memory spaces. You have to rewrite everything to use WASM intrinsics to work on a specific memory.

Stray thought: the way Zig uses first-class allocators might make it interesting for doing things with multiple memories.
