Doesn't all of that work through embedded web-browser?

I think the embedded browser is where the most bloat is located. Although this particular vulnerability is not tied to it.
It work through a slow embedded web-browser.
Displaying achievements yes, but obtaining them has to interact in some ways with rest of the client. Trading cards and inventory probably too.
Valve's Steam uses VGUI toolkit (proprietary), and a WebKit-based embedded browser.
