Option 1, besides enabling libre.js, can also bring numerous existing
cross-browser extensions to Emacs, if we finally support a large enough

all written in JS and JS is worse than Elisp.

Option 2 might require as much work as option 1, but without the additional
benefit (or drawback?) of bringing other JS extensions.

I'd suggest Option 1 as providing more bang for the buck. I think the FSF tech staff is looking at LibreJS; see <https://www.fsf.org/blogs/sysadmin/coming-soon-a-new-site-for-fully-free-collaboration>.
