is there plan to support 'linker namespace' in glib?


Hi experts:


I notice that android bionic support 'linker namespace': https://source.android.com/devices/architecture/vndk/linker-namespace
it provides additional isolation among software components.
it may also benefit some usage: 
 - isolation prebuilt binaries with different toolchain (versioned glibc)
 - it may also give us opportunity to use android binary (HAL) with glibc, by isolating glib and bionic world in different namespace


do you think the above approach is possible?
 if yes, is it possible to add such feature to glibc?


thanks.
