I like this approach, I'm keen to try it too – is the project open source? Which browser engine did you use?
One advantage of this approach compared to the minimal UI libraries is that you can expect it to work well with a massive array of hardware – elements like scroll boxes should work seamlessly with touchscreens, apple trackpads and regular wheel mice, text input elements should respect the user's navigation key bindings. Accessibility features like voiceover should be supported. The downside is of course the weight of the browser engine compared to a tiny C library, however it'd be an interesting experiment to see how much bloat could be stripped out of a browser if you only care about a subset of features, i.e, WebGL can go, legacy layout modes can go etc
