Are there plans to switch to Rust for future node core development?

If a re-architecture happens too then Node can be one of the fastest and most secure servers out there. It might also bring new people to the community too.

I don't think there is too much of an incentive to switch to rust - but if core members feel strongly we will (at the moment to the best of my knowledge people are content with C++).
