Web based Voice over IP and super-high-compressed video/music is were Opus should shine.

Can it usefully be embedded in webm?

Not webm, since webm is specifically the matroska/vp8/vorbis combination, with some extra restrictions on what matroska features are available.
There's work on putting it into matroska, though it looks like there are some incompatibilities with seek timestamps: http://wiki.xiph.org/MatroskaOpus
