Browsers are at the forefront of interfacing with the web.

If VR is coming to the web, Mozilla need to at least be ready for this, if not leading it.

There are precedents from the previous wave of attempts at VR: "MICROSOFT AND NETSCAPE TEAM UP ON VRML STANDARD" (1997) [1]

They have a VR web browser, and a full implementation of WHATWG already requires a lot of VR-interfacing technology.

Blame W3 and WHATWG?
