This seems like a really elegant solution - it simultaneously improves browser technology for all of the internent and avoids the appstore walled garden tax. The hope would be to that Unreal makes a generically useful browser that can navigate to any web page (include hacker news) so it can't be blocked from/taxed by the appstore. But also provides W3C/industry standard compliant WebGPU advances and ways to cache login info/game assets/game states and handle game networking - of which Unreal as well as its competitors such as Unity can use if they wanted to. If Unreal implements its browser hooks in a non-standardized, purposefully cryptic proprietary way - then they are really just creating their own walled garden - which they can do but can't really claim any moral high ground (if that's important to them).
