It practically already exists. Xcode can import an existing WebExtension and generate an Xcode project for it. Assuming you are happy with the default behaviour of the companion app (which basically just gives you info on the extension, whether it is enabled in Safari, and how to enable it if not), you can just hit build and submit it to Apple.


That sounds pretty low friction (to me -- but I already develop with Xcode) in exchange for being signed and available in the App Store.
