So, if I'm running FreeBSD on a MIPS processor, where do I get the 
appropriate plug-in?
What if I'm using Java on a Blackberry?
Or C++ on Win64?

I think that transporting any kind of behavior isn't really feasible, 
unless you want to specify a common language, runtime and execution 
environment. There are two of those that could be used: Java JRE or 
Microsoft .NET. I think you'll have trouble getting everyone in the 
world to agree on any one of those.

Sincerely,
