   Cool. Sounds like something for a very specific market if I may garner a   
   guess. The switching between architecture looks very interesting, but I wonder   
   how many people would make use of something like that in the 'real world'.   
   Only reason I'm on x86    
   assembly is it satisfies my retro computing indulgence and desire to   
   understand the evolution of architecture. I think I would enjoy such as tool   
   but I doubt there are many people who would make good use of it (?)
