For some types of apps, sure. But if you look at the list, the ones that sting the most are kernel or video parsing errors or similar. I am just not seeing these being implemented with anything else than an efficient, low level programming language. At least not for the foreseeable future.
But what it may do, hopefully, is getting rid of all that audio/video/photo stuff from the kernel. One has to ask why a video encoder can leak kernel memory in the first place. (This was rhetoric question, we all know why. It is just not sustainable to put more and more stuff into monolithic kernel as you add more silicon to solve some CPU/GPU intensive problems because it is just easy.)
