from Unix world I could recommend w3m, links and dillo. Former two are pure text apps (similar to lynx but way better), dillo has full support for graphics. All of them do tables but dillo doesn't do frames. As of the complexity.. not easy to judge. I guess sooner or later we will have to port GTK but it hasn't been done yet so you would need a detailed look at how much of it needs to be emulated to get the basic rendering in dillo done.
