Current version of Windows already have Chromium in the form of new Edge and Microsoft seems to start pushing progressive web applications. At least they made good integration with system for them.
So, perhaps, soon we will have PWAs instead of bunch of electron apps each carrying its own Chromium.

>Are there already atmosphere-breathing engines that do this and what are they called?
