Check out Supermedium, part of the last YC batch. We're doing exactly that. A full VR browser that runs on Web technology, but trying to seem indistinguishable from native VR. Worlds load in seconds, people publish via Web, access via links that look like anything, and "VR pages" can do anything. Scrapping a lot of the old Web baggage and redefining it for VR. http://store.steampowered.com/app/803010/Supermedium/

Sorry to ask, but is it open source?

Nope, perhaps in the future. But we open source all of the reusable components and backport loads of fixes back to the A-Frame, which is open source, which we spend a considerable amount of time maintaining.
