Is the idea to add polyfills for common globals that map to the standard WASI interfaces? In a JS host these would then be the counterpart to the jco/preview2-shims. Meaning a component can use a host function as follows: JS code -> ComponentizeJS polyfill -> JCO shim -> host implementation.
Taking console.log as an example, you would get: JS code using console.log -> mapped to WASI-logging -> mapped back to host console.log implementation.
Taking SubtleCrypto in the browser as an example, you would get: JS code using JS SubtleCrypto API -> mapped to WASI-crypto -> mapped back to host SubtleCrypto implementation.
