 Not sure if this will happen, and it's more likely that the existing code
 will just rot away into irrelevance due to lack of development, but given
 that:

  * I don't like, and I'm not very good at writing UI code
  * I don't like Go
  * Adding more containers to reduce the amount of code that runs
 uncontainerized on the host system would be a great idea that will
 increase security

 This might be a reasonable thing to do.  In theory the UI is somewhat
 abstracted from the rest of the code, but in practice a lot of the
 boundaries aren't as clean as they should be because the emphasis was on
 "get something working".
