I wish there was builtin support for webapps that was at least as integrated as X forwarding is on ssh. Basically what I'm imagining is some standardized way of tunneling http in unix sockets, and then ssh setting up the sockets and some env var. Then when application connects to the socket ssh client would open new browser window similar to PWA.
There are many flaws with such approach, webapps being often crappy being of course one of them. But the redeeming factor is that practically all the tech already exists, this would need just minimal glue to make it reality, while many other approaches are more of a pipe dream.
