Er, really? So it means that, for example, a FileIO object couldn't be shared between runtimes either? How about a socket object? Do you want to forbid FileIO and socket objects as part of the API? Again, I propose that FILE* functions are allowed in the API, but their use discouraged in the docs (with proper explanations from those who know how to word them).
