V4 and S3 are OSes not applications, although this differentiation is a
little blurry in Oberon.
In today's world, one could call your idea of running an OS on top of
another OS virtualization.
Or one could take the idea of Linux, with a common kernel and different OS
flavors on top.

In the operating system A2 (aka Bluebottle, aka AOS, written in
ActiveOberon) it's possible to start the legacy Oberon OS as separate task
in A2.

So, your idea is well possible (in SW almost everything is possible :-) but
needs quite some work.

Joerg:

  do not you think that V4 and S3 can coexist on top of the same lower level
layer? You could possibly launch either one or the other, or perhaps even
both, though it would make little sense. 

Merging the two could possibly end the rift which was dividing the community
for reasons which were hard to grasp from a distance.

Hi

Isn't this request like: I would like to see Linux and Android merged?
They are similar: same language, same compiler (perhaps even same CPU, same
Kernel). But some of the APIs differ.

I think this is an excellent idea.

Maybe UV4 would be a good starting point:
