Hey everyone! Reading through the wiki (and indeed I saw this when it was originally posted, but its been long since buried) I stumbled upon a thread from 2005: http://forum.osdev.org/viewtopic.php?t=10321
This concept is very, very attractive to me. Does anyone have a working implementation (half an hour of searching couldn't find a trace of Sanik or his original code) or even a theory paper on this, so I could implement it myself?
Edit
To clarify, does anyone see a downside to this approach as opposed to switching back to real mode or using a v86 emulator?

Emulation is slower, and requires more code. But that's about it.To clarify, does anyone see a downside to this approach as opposed to switching back to real mode or using a v86 emulator?
