    This “machine state” definition and manipulation is exactly the hard part of the concept. I’m not saying it can’t be done, but it’s a beast of a problem.

    Our best current solutions are just dumb web crawler bots.

    To me a simple page saving (ctrl+s) integration seems like a most realistic solution.

      I mean the engine already has a full machine state. I could just run firefox inside a VM and snapshot the VM to save the website in a idle-disconnected state. So it’s a matter of doing something more sane and efficient than this
