Compiler/runtime support via clang and llvm should help I hope.

I'd like to get to the point where web browsers (for example) always run with memory-safe compilation and runtime features on every platform. OS kernels would be nice as well.

It will be nice to see more OSes ship with memory safety on by default for everything. Maybe OpenBSD is next?

As mentioned elsewhere, Solaris SPARC and Linux on SPARC since 2015.
sel4 ships with memory safety on by default.
