The groundwork is kinda there. Haiku's strategy for troublesome drivers has been to lift them from FreeBSD. IDK if it works at the moment, since last I checked FreeBSD 11 doesn't support my cheapo integrated AMD chip. My worry is more the resource dump that is modern web browsers. That year was 2014. I don't think a desktop OS without graphics hardware vendor support is ever going to find its niche now
Thanks to the generous support of donors, Haiku, Inc. was able to employ a developer to work full-time on enhancing WebKit port and areas of the system relevant to it (which turned out to be nearly everything) for over a year.
