If this can be overcome, I think the options would be to either: a) implement a Morphic raster rendering backend based on HTML5 Canvas, or: 2) create DOM & CSS based Morphic widgets, like the Lively Kernel does.
iii) Take a look at the Shampoo protocol: https://github.com/dmatveev/shampoo. With a Shampoo client in Pharo and a Shampoo server in Amber, you can use Pharo as your Amber IDE. Of course initially this is just using the Pharo IDE as an editor for programming Amber and doesn't offer much integration, but once the connectivity is there, I'm sure other possibilities open up. Btw, I cooked up what I called MorphIDE in 2011 when Amber was Jtalk. But eventually I didn't use Jtalk for anything so MorphIDE didn't grow beyond the proof of concept. See http://www.samadhiweb.com/blog/2011.09.03.morphide.html. Also, the Jtalk/Amber examples on my blog may not work because the JS files were lost when I moved the blog across machines. Pierce
