I've no idea whether such a protocol exists today; however, the current set of
browsers don't appear to support such a beast. It might be a good solution 5
years down the line, once all the old browsers that don't support it have
fallen out of use, but even if the protocol's ready to go now the installed
browser base isn't ready for a site that uses it.
