I am considering CEF as an alternative to other UI/front-end frameworks. However, my application has peculiar needs in terms of UI: I still need to render native controls, that I could migrate to HTML5 eventually, but this is not an option at the moment.
What would be the most reasonable way to do it, if any? How about implementing a PPAPI plugin? Could it be partially transparent and have HTML DOM objects overlaying on top of it? Given it would run it a separate process, how would you manage IPC with the main (wrapper) process?
I am aware this is a very broad discussion topic, but I am here to gather your opinions and, possibly, be pointed to the right direction that could be not the one I am heading to.
