    Acme is a powerful text editor, development environment and textual-user-interface platform...
    Uzbl (https://www.uzbl.org/) used to do that but it seems it was too heavy in practice. Today I'm more interestea in turning the web into a more textual format to integrate it in acme (http://acme.cat-v.org/) which is already built around modularity. Making the web a content provider and letting me interact withit the way I want.

  5. Replace Firefox's default control mechanism with one modelled on the one true editor, Vim.
    There are always going to be limitations to extension-based approaches but Firefox with tridactyl is most of the way there capability-wise IMO (<a href="https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl">https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl</a>). I use that plus tree-style tabs and find it excellent. There's always some extensibility limitations that break the integration though, like extensions getting disabled on mozilla domains. I love projects like nyxt and respect their priorities, but without big-player extension support it's usually a no-go for me. Still, I'll be interested to see the ideas they develop trickle out into the rest of the power-browser ecosystem. I especially like that lossless tree history – history management is a very under-explored UX area IMO.
