Wow - so. If we have something like this that can work well (and I can imagine all manner of fun Java/GC integration problems - particulary if we have real Java (with GC) + llvm-java (with GC) + python (with GC) ;-) who owns what signal can become quite exciting). Anyhow - if we can get this going, I'd love to do it first with LanguageTool: it's Java-ness is what is blocking us bundling that by default, and it'd be great to solve that before the HSQLDB issues I guess. Any interest in playing with a prototype there ?
