gollark: Well, the sandboxing backend for potatOS does, but it's close enough.

gollark: It looks like a usable approach would be to just sandbox "webpages" to allow... basically just a subset of term access, all the random utility functions and libraries which are important, *maybe* HTTP (impose limits on requests - "CORS" type things, perhaps?), and a few things for user input and whatnot.
gollark: Cool, but make sure it's more secure than Firewolf...
gollark: Moooo!
