The problems you lay out seem basically insurmountable for anything with a significantly less cumbersome and scary UI than extensions. Would it be valuable to recast this discussion as "let's standardize some type of browser extension"? So that authors could write a limited sort of cross-browser extension, basically? I'm not suggesting a change in the proposed feature set, just a different way of looking at the issue in terms of UI.
