Since Firefox (and i assume Firefox OS) uses the new "asm.js" subset

assembly/machine code?
Interesting stuff, indeed.
Obviously that wouldn't solve the GUI issue (one will still need to
implement a HTML-based (or whatever) LCL backend, but i think with
canvas nowadays that is possible).
This in fact is a completely different issue.
In fact, having support for a HTML5 backend (aka "Widget Type"), with
the normal Lazarus LCL form designer for designing the the user
interface, would allow for nice stuff in the non-mobile world as well.
