You're kind of misreading why Nitro isn't in UIWebView. Since Nitro is a JIT it requires executable pages. Non-apple apps don't allow executable pages because you could then download native code and run nearly anything you want (within the process sandbox), which adds a risk that what Apple approves for the app store may not be what ends up running on a consumer's phone. The good news is, that with Remote View Controllers in iOS 6, we may get Nitro'ed UIWebViews in a separate process (like how home screen apps work) that have their own secure set of executable pages.
