To the authors, is it possible to have a “local mode” that doesn’t use gstreamer to encode the application frame from the server to the client and instead passes a gpu memory reference from the application to the browser? Like the way wayland compositors generally work. There must be some GL extension that can enable that functionality.

Not possible, webgl is sandboxed and doesn’t expose the required egl extension. It might be possible if you’d port it to deno and use some native code perhaps(?)
