There's a project which adds a second location bar in the viewport for older browsers (going back to IE 5-ish days, I think), then lets you browse modern websites with it by rendering them headless and only sending over image maps. It was also featured on HN back in the day.
I was thinking that with a WASM port of a browser engine you could do the rendering on the client side as well, but you'd have to use a host modern enough to run WASM in the first place so... not a great idea on my part
