The idea is about not having to choose between Web and WASI APIs, but to have a common mechanism that works both on and off the Web without having to feature-check / recompile / polyfill / worry, i.e. so modules become portable across ecosystems and do not need to be fixed to either Web or WASI upon compilation. However, investing time into it would only be worthwhile if the CG considered this a valuable addition, which doesn't look like it.

@dcodeIO , great! Are you looking at implementing this at the WebAssembly core? I was thinking of instead implementing it via bindings. I'm still thinking about adding a few JavaScript APIs like fetch and Crypto in AssemblyScript plus timing and the like.
I'm thinking that if I create bindings that are isomorphic, it could work in the web and NodeJS exactly the same so we wouldn't need polyfills. Like you said, this wouldn't be portable across other runtimes so I'm just going to make a private implementation of some of these things for private usage. However, getting support natively on WebAssembly would be amazing!
