I suppose people interested in using a high integrity web browser as a front
end for a critical application would be in control of both the client and
the server. As such they could design the server side to cater to the
limitations of the specialized client.
Browsing arbitrary Internet sites even with a browser that just enforces
standards would be a disaster. Imposing other limitations would definitely
be impractical. I agree with you there.
