Lionel, I think this is definitely a great idea for GSoC. I like the work you've done in this area, but there was a fair amount of discussion on this list recently about different ways you could go about making an HTML 5 Activity and maybe this task could involve looking at several of these

Edward, Since the Read Activity uses WebKit for reading EPUBs it seems likely that you could make an EPUB with JavaScript in it and make a sort of electronic pop-up book out of it. It might not be a strictly kosher EPUB, but Read probably wouldn't care. Maybe this could be something else to
