Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am frustrated by js-ipfs being the only option in regards to the ipfs daemon embedded into the ipfs companion extension.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see go-ipfs/kubo embedded into IPFS companion by compiling it to webassembly. The go compiler supports webassembly as a target, and chrome extensions support webassembly, so IPFS companion should support go-ipfs/kubo. It will bring IPFS companion up to speed in regards with IPFS desktop in regards to Chromebooks, like the one I am stuck with at the moment.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The alternative would be to bring js-ipfs up to speed with the features and transports of go ipfs.
