Are you asking if it's possible to do this with deployed browsers?
Then the answer is no. (except for perhaps the emacs browser by Bill
Perry, and maybe Midas by Tony Johnson at SLAC).
If you're asking if it's possible to write code to do this, then of
course the answer is yes, but that's irrelevant to the 2.0 effort.
