> - Rust for plugins.. this is painful, compare it to Sublime Text's python API, it's night and day..

Yes, this is unfortunate as they've unsuitably chosen the barely usable & unstable "component model" for their Wasm plugin layer. It's really only half-decent in Rust (to write the code & compile to CM non-standard version of wasm binary. it's also only truthfully usable to call components _from_ rust too.)

I think they are banking on the eventual support for cross-language async - which likely could never come, or could take longer than the company stays solvent!
