But my personal view is that we should support a syntax that is a subset or derivative of HTML while being performant so that any existing web framework can generate smooth native apps (while also side stepping Apples rules against implementing a browser engine :P).

It sounds stupid but I work in E-commerce and have wished for this many times.

That sounds like React Native: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/

Have you seen Apple's TVML?

It's an XML/HTML-like syntax for building native Apple TV apps using native components, but loaded over HTTP and without having to write Objc/Swift code. It's very much like this (or React Native), but in XML.
