Though not quite the Plan 9 way, do you suspect it would be easier to
start over from scratch, maybe using Limbo/Inferno, rather than
dragging a bunch of code that's probably C++ anyway over to Plan 9?

In some ways it's the HTML problem, where the flavor of the month
target moves faster than the motivation of the coders.  How long
before OGG and Flash are on the request list?
