I mean if Unreal Engine 4 runs on it, why aren't we using it to drive all software?

IIRC, Servo implements the WebKit embedding API, so it wouldn't be too far-fetched to have a node-servo (although Mozilla are using Spidermonkey and not V8 as the JS engine)

dont bother, look what happened to XUL, or gecko powered node.
