the "soundness" link retrieves a lib.rs page saying "The requested resource does not exist ". I'm not sure if this was the intended link but it looks like it might be relevant discussion.

BTW, Cool stuff! Could this be valuable in enhancing Rust 64bit application to Rust 32bit Wasm foreign function interface safety for passing zero-copy structs? If nothing else, it's certainly helping me understand more about memory representation. Thanks!!!

I don't know anything about the challenges of doing that sort of thing, but if it's anything where having guarantees about memory laytes would be helpful, then probably yes!
