The ctypes module is pretty interesting. It allows people to load arbitrary dll's into python. This could probably be implemented by using some rust crate which does the same.

This is a nice challenge!

I'm down for trying to implement this one! It looks like libloading is probably a good place to start

I dont know if it is a good idea to do something like PyPy's clibffi and _cffi_backend in the long term. Perhaps to have something kinda working in the near future.
