I don't care for Scheme, but I'd be very, very surprised if it'd have failed in such a situation. If a terrible train wreck of a language like JavaScript can succeed, pretty much anything better than INTERCAL can. People wanted to extend browsers; had Scheme been the only way to do that, Scheme is what they'd have used.
