I didn't know that. But one can support "raw" pointers in a sandbox via 
emulation. But then one loses the benefits of raw pointers. It doesn't change my 
opinion that C++ is unsuitable for in-browser work.

As I recall, there is "managed C++" which was Microsoft getting C++ to work with 
CLI, but they did it by extensively modifying the language.
