why not ship a desktop application at this point with support for a special schema?

i can understand the abuse for server side rendering, but at this poit you pretty much have a bad browser engine. running inside a 2d hack in a browser engine. sigh.

Why re-invent the wheel with a special schema when CSS2 is a solid standard and widely understood? Is there no room in the world for rendering implementations between nothing at all and full-spec web browser with all the bells and whistles?
I'm actually advocating against re-inventing the wheel (insider another wheel, no less)

you can still follow css spec if you want. just get a better environment than a canvas.
