Not really what you're asking for, but the conkeror browser was started by a bunch of Emacsers wishing for a more Emacs-like browser. It's highly scriptable (in Javascript, not Elisp) and configurable, and has Emacs-like keybindings. You can use C-i in a textarea to open an external editing client (like emacsclient). It's still fairly beta quality at the moment, but is worth checking out: http://conkeror.org -- -David
