> I don't expect to see code evaluation on untrusted input as intended features in web browser

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry at that. Suffice to say that ship has sailed all the way around the world several times, to the great detriment of everyone who isn't a advertising or other malware-development corporation.

There's no JS interpreter in EWW [1]. If you're forced to use a different browser, having JS off by default is not hard to get used to.

But surely someone out there will make a code highlighter for EWW, and maybe that highlighter calls org-mode on some block and that ends up evaluating stuff etc.
