Hi Jason, I appreciate your work here. These patches can potentially lower the entry barrier to writing other language bindings. Unfortunately, I don't not feel that this is something suitable for gh next. It adds a dependency on a mesa patch, which makes it more difficult to build the next stack, without many immediate benefits. I wanted to make it clear upfront to avoid wasted effort. I am glad that we were able to get many of the bugs worked out before it is reviewed, it is nice to see the community working together here.
