FYI, my IO cell library currently won't support different power domains.
Although implementation may seem trivial it actually is not. Thing is that you
may not fully isolate the domains because then you get ESD problems between
pins of different voltage domain.
So the prototype will have on 3.3V domain and one 1.8V domain.
