I think it'd be possible to create a replacement, assuming you're a large company that ships your own browser (not naming names...). If you have enough market share/"killer apps" then it might be adopted (maybe?).

Now, ditching JS is a whole nother ballgame, and yeah, I don't see that happening any time soon!

One of them tried it, they had a Monopoly and tried to push their Basic (not naming names) but it didn't take off. I can't believe I am saying this but I kinda wish it had worked.
