From the wikipedia -

Google Native Client (NaCl) is a sandboxing technology for running a subset of Intel x86 or ARM native code using software-based fault isolation. It is proposed for safely running native code from a web browser, allowing web-based applications to run at near-native speeds. (Emphasis mine) (Source)

Compiled C++ code running in a browser? Are other companies working on a similar offering?

What would it mean for the browser landscape?
