The stack switching support is not quite complete. In particular, the validation is not implemented.

Thanks, good point.

Also SharedEverything is still under development at the spec level, so that should be under Ongoing Work I suppose.

If we decide to land this, I'll update those parts (for now the larger question for me is if this document seems useful at all).

* SharedEverything
* FP16
* BulkMemory
* Tools:
* wasm-opt
* wasm2js
* wasm-ctor-eval
* wasm-emscripten-finalize
* wasm-fuzz-types
* wasm-metadce
* wasm-reduce
* wasm-as
* wasm-dis
* wasm-fuzz-lattices
* wasm-merge
* wasm-shell
* [Fuzzing]
* [ClusterFuzz integration]
