Neat :)

My only concern is with bytevectors. It should be possible to map a
bytevector to an existing range of memory, for read-write access. That
implies a pointer indirection. We can optimize for the inline case by
doing something like:

   +--------+------+-----+...
   | header | len  | ptr | inline-contents
   +--------+------+-----+...
                      \----^
