Yeah, possibly. Chrome actually has something called "native messaging" https://developer.chrome.com/apps/nativeMessaging https://developer.chrome.com/apps/nativeMessaging which seems like a potentially more secure (and faster?) alternative, but I haven't had time to play with it yet.

I think the day is not far when automated scans/app stores/etc start flagging the local http server thing as high risk/potential malware vector. It's an architectural dead-end. On the other hand, some of the other stuff may not be fully baked: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23173724 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23173724
