in theory, yes.

the problem is, how can chrome+firefox persuade microsoft, apple, debian and redhat to add it? and how long will that take? maybe some of them don't want it at all.

with the current approach they can offer this improvement to their user right now.

I understand that, but what Im concerned about is Chrome or Firefox or etc skipping my OS settings and preferences. Like they already do in some cases.

Internet Explorer had tight coupling with OS.

It should teach that Evergreen Browser requires Evergreen OS. And there is long tail.

Windows XP (2001) support:

* Internet Explorer 8 (2009) * Chrome 49 (2016) * Firefox 52 (2017)

IE supported latest versions only, should have been most integrated and now it's dead.
