It would have to allow access to only the single app and no extra permissions aside from what the app had natively. So ie we can't use Xpra, which would be a wonderful solution otherwise. Consider also you'll have access to the source of the apps you want to forward visually and the control of over to the browser. And they'll be in c/c++ and you'll have written them yourself so you're well familiar with the code.

What approach would you use to forward them visually live to a browser and forward back control of just the native running app?

The approach I'm looking at / developing at the moment is I'll grab the frame buffer of the app, run my own self developed micro http server, the the httpserver will then upon connect stream what it claims is video file but will in fact be a live encoded video that just started at the beginning of that connection of the frame buffers given to the httpserver.

If that works then the browser will feedback events like mouse movements and keys back to the httpserver through websocket and then the httpserver back to the app.
