WASM has the potential to change the world... a thought: while WASM will initially appear in compute-intense functions in web apps, it has the potential to be a true "Common Language Runtime". It may become the future platform that native, dekstop apps run on.
This could be a good thing, if done correctly:
1. Desktop apps have a common, safe runtime upon which they run, and the packages can be easily distributed (and verified?) by browsers
2. "Web apps" could potentially go away - leaving web browsers for what they were intended, document sharing
