Could it be possible to run containers within this environment? I ask because I personally think we are headed towards a future where web browsers are just sandboxed container environments where we download and run containers for each app... Eventually, even calling them "web" browsers might feel a little odd, almost the way in which we "dial" a phone number today, even though we now mostly key it in on a touch screen.

Well, the environment itself is a container. Supporting Linux "namespaces" used to implement containers is also a possibility. As described in the project README we provide a GitHub Action workflow to convert Dockerfiles into bootable images for WebVM: https://github.com/leaningtech/webvm https://github.com/leaningtech/webvm
