Making Harmony modular enouth to be kind of a JVM framework cannot be done before having a working JVM. There is a lot of literature about how frameworks should emerge from continuous design and development.
There's been a lot of work in this area, and many of the people that did it are here and willing to help...
Given that body of knowledge, why not?
This must not be the focus until required, so no JIT plugable layer until someone tries to write another JIT for Harmony (emphasis on another).
Creating such is a big chalenge, to guess what spots need to flexible and the others that don't. Guess what, people often make bad guesses about these and in the end we have a very complex design with a lot of shortcomings.
I believe the focus should be on deciding if Harmony will star from other JVM or not.
We hope so :) We're lazy
