with Chrome compiling javascript code, maybe it would be easier to write a js library as the 3d plugin?

In the neuroanatomy scientific community (and in the medical in general), we CAN'T WAIT to have a proper interactive blender-like 3D viewer in-the-browser that just works. All VRML viewers turned out to be horrible, or just incompatible with Blender.

What about having something faster than JavaScript, say, Python running in a similar plugin instead? Something that has a complete modern 3D Engine and a Physics Engine with VRML and fair Blender support.

Are you sure that Python is faster than JavaScript? I'm not saying it isn't, but in a light of recent optimized JavaScript engines who knows?

What we need boils down to:

* Rotate in 3D with middle mouse button (MMB)

* Pan in 3D with shift+MMB

* Zoom with scroll wheel

* Print object's name on mouse over.

On top of this, built whatever later, for the above cover most visualization needs.

remember that the HTML5 canvas 3d context is currently in the works, and from the demos that i played with, looks awesome.

I'd rather see X3D get a proper DOM: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300874
