There already is Ymacs. It doesn't have an elisp interpreter, but it does implement a lot of the basic editing functionality of Emacs.

But it doesn't have a vi mode, which is pretty much a show stopper. :P

You could just create a regular user account, run regular Emacs, and show the user an anyterm or Ajaxterm terminal. Would that be cheating?

Which is the show stopper, having a vi mode, or not having one? (I could go either way.)
