That's not true at all, and I expect them to become increasingly important over time. Now that we have the DOM being abstracted away into the virtual DOM in React, Angular 2, Vue, etc., it should be almost entirely possible to run your framework code entirely in a WebWorker while sending back some type of delta/patch to update the actual DOM.
I'm not sure what you mean that web sockets aren't supported since the MDN shows it as being fully available:
Where this falls down is in handling events where some actions inherently need to be synchronous (preventDefault, stopPropagation), however I think Angular 2 was starting to consider options on how to overcome that. I can't speak for progress in other frameworks.
