Code:
Memory protection is hard to achieve without breaking the backward compatibility (apps do not ask for a memory access, they just do).
I'm not talking about memory protection. I'm talking about providing Memory funcitons to the ABox that allow the coder to mark zones as illegal to raise exceptions (usefull for nallehpuh) or simply to remap memory areas (like remaping the first 8KBs in pther part of the memory)
You could do that with Thor's MMU library on Amiga 68k!
It doesn't compromise Q-Box design because you use a function and you don't use the MMU directly. You'll only be able to use the memory areas allowed by the Q-Box.
