I think it'd be cool if the browser had some sort of crypto "black box" (although open to inspection) that you could just send messages to without using JavaScript. Sorta like a software-defined TPM that handles crypto-related doodads.

"But doesn't TLS cover that???"

idk how you'd divert messages to this black box. It'd probably have to be HTTP level and signalled with special headers as to what cryptographic operations you want performed.
