The support for Native Client sounds interesting, but the distinction that it's not portable native client makes me wonder what you might use this for. What would one use the native client support for?

Could I use it to allow developers to make plugins for a product in Go and C++ in a secure way, instead of using say Lua?

http://play.golang.org runs user programs inside Native Client. See more on the blog post: http://blog.golang.org/playground
On a related note, do you know if anyone is using Go with Lua plugins (or any other plugin system for that matter) in production. If so, does it work well?
