i'm on the same wavelength as what is being described here. what comes to mind is Qt, since it is a robust C++ framework designed to be portable to all the major OS', along with embedded environments as well. in my view, this page describes Qt for the browser (and server). not so much literally, but conceptually. such a framework should allow widgets to be drawn, an event model to trigger actions, database support, threading, ... most importantly, it could reuse existing c++ libraries, be type-safe, be portable and run close to the metal (in-process, if desired).
