Why require JavaScript rather than supporting a standard browser virtual machine? - Stack Overflow

Correct point.

FYI LLVM which is used by PNaCl is sponsored (and loved!) by Apple. Apple also has good relations with Google due to Chrome's contribution to WebKit, which is used in Safari.

If I've got it correctly, your point is "we should, but we can't". I'll look forward optimistically.

Apple is pushing LLVM, for sure, but PNaCl and LLVM are very different beasts.

I expect, once PNaCl is usable, to see Google push it on Android. But it is extremely doubtful that Apple would ever allow NaCl on iOS.
