I may be wrong but I don't think Skype works without at least a browser extension.

Skype does not require a web browser to do NAT piercing.

Nor does NAT piercing require a web browser.

So Skype has a 100% success rate piercing NATs and does not require any fallbacks? Also you mentioned that you do not use STUN/TURN, what other solutions are there that allow for p2p data streams between browsers?
