That's incredible, and extremely close to the hypothetical use case I was imagining, which I thought was impossible to solve.
Could you adapt that technology into a system for allowing a computer in one location to browse the web using the (relatively unrestricted) network connection of a computer in another location?
I'm thinking of times when you're away from home (where your PC is running) and stuck using a web browser on another PC that has an aggressive filtering and/or monitoring policy. That's why in my threat model I imagined that there was a MitM that effectively operates a trusted CA.
The difference between screen sharing and being a web proxy is presumably that the "sending" browser is also accepting navigation requests (from the "receiving" browser) which control the URL and scrolling/clicking of an iframe in the page that hosts the web app itself. I suppose that capturing the clicks on hyperlinks would be the hardest part, unless you could do some clever conversion between pixel locations and DOM elements.
