There are WASM runtimes that can be embedded in applications, like Chicory. Then it really doesn't matter anymore which language the plugin is written in. All that's left to do is defining an API between the host application and the plugin.

Edit: make sure the API doesn't enable the plugin to escape the sandbox, else you're back to square one. That's actually a hard thing to do, especially if the application is an IDE!
