Terminals and web browsers are our main UI drivers right, so yeah, it makes sense to have a super app that provides them both in the best way. Embdding a terminal inside a web app is annoying because of Ctrl-W and other issues, and embedding a web broswer inside a terminal is even more weird. So we wind up having Wayland compositors do the work to combine them in one environment.

I tried to do this with a simple wgpu + winit app, servo, and alactitty_terminal, and it kinda worked, but both terminal and web browser rendered poorly.
