I guess Europe would have to fund its own browser development. The rest of the world won't participate.

It's a market of nearly half a billion people, two-tier browsers seem more likely. IIRC Netscape did this in the past over US export laws on cryptography.
Developing a browser these days mostly involves slapping on their own branding over Firefox or Chromium though, so hardly the end of the world for EU.
