Being a Linux user I really like everything being ran in the browser. What if we just have more control of which JS APIs can be used? On a site by site bases. Which I assume can probably already be done with extensions.

Some browsers such as cromite disable JIT compilation and WebAssembly by default. Allowing you to opt-in to enable these features on a site by site bases.

JIT and WebAssembly have been the source of many high profile CVE in browser recently including the one mentioned in the post (well, this one is on Safari's Chrome).
