I know this isn't what the WebDriver BiDi protocol is for, but I feel like it's 90% there to being a protocol through which you can create browsers, with swappable engines. Gecko has gone a long way since Servo, and it's actually quite performant these days. The sad thing is that it's so much easier to create a Chromium-based browser than it is to create a Gecko based one. But with APIs for navigating, intercepting requests, reading the console, executing JS - why not just embed the thing, remove all the browser chrome around it, and let us create customized browsers?
