--- Comment #2 from Asumu Takikawa <asumu at igalia.com> ---
There is still a lot of discussion about what the role of `anyref`, `externref`, etc should be in the GC proposal: https://github.com/WebAssembly/gc/issues/307

I think until this is clear, it's best to avoid implementing `anyref` (it's unclear if a "top type" is even going to be in the final type hierarchy). It might make sense to instead implement types like `dataref` (structs & arrays) and `eqref` (dataref + i31ref) initially.
