In fact I've been thinking about compiling JVM bytecode to JS using Emscripten. Either by compiling JVM bytecode to LLVM IR, or directly to Emscripten's IR (which is a close parallel to LLVM's). If any JVM hackers want to work on that with me, that would be awesome (I can do all the LLVM/Emscripten parts).
