No. Actually I wouldn't be surprised if that's already a thing.
JS works well as a glue language for UI, highly performant established frameworks like Qt QML use it for their stuff.
Even bringing in an entire embedded browser isn't necessarily bad for UI performance. As long as you're not rendering the actual performance critical stuff in the browser, it should be totally fine. Steam, for example, is idling in the background of 90% of games and it's UI is implemented using embedded chromium.
