Fundamentally, it's Apple's refusal to allow real 3rd party browsers that is the problem.

Actually, 3rd party browsers are now allowed on the App Store, with a few restrictions. Previous, section 3.3.2 of the developer agreement prevented the downloading and running of any code, except for JavaScript running inside iOS's JavaScriptCore. But the June 5th agreement allows any language and interpreter. There are two limitations. The system makes it impossible to run unsigned code, so JIT compilation is out. Also, an app can't establish its own app store, so Google would have to get special permission for the Chrome Web Store.

I'm talking about section 2.5.6, which still states "Apps that browse the web must use the appropriate WebKit framework and WebKit Javascript."
