I'd rather have a Emacs on JavaScript; with a possibility to be run from the browser. (Yes I know, that'd mean rewriting everything. Not the end of the world, it'll be fun time.)
Not necessarily... The vast majority of emacs is written in elisp, and the amount of instructions written in C is actually rather small, It's been a while, but on the order of a few hundred too a few thousand.
Once you were to rewrite the elisp interpreter, and other calls from C into JavaScript, in theory, running emacs in you're browser isn't actually that absurd.
