Recently I came up with an idea regarding this. It goes something like this:

AmigaOS has no memeryprotection, but WarpOS has. Now would it be possible to
utilize this to give 68K apps some form of memoryprotection ?

Say by letting each 68k task run in its own emulator task on the host OS, and
having some sort of manager keeping an eye on everything.
