Hi Scott,

I'm currently starting to work on a prototype that will be at least 
RFC'd (if not v1'd) during 18.08 timeframe. Basically, the idea is to 
create/destroy named malloc heaps dynamically, and allow user to request 
memory from them. You may then mmap() whatever you want and create a 
malloc heap out of it.

Does that sound reasonable?
