As the comments point out, this is not a generic decentralised web standard to get around ICE and the like, but just a specification for p2p audio/video/etc communications for online video conferencing and so on. Not as big as I hoped.
But if you enable p2p communication between javascript clients, there should be nothing stopping you from implementing that kind of stuff within the browser.
That's a shame. I was just thinking yesterday how great it would be to be able to host web pages in a P2P fashion (after all, people are building an economy of the bittorrent infrastructure). Sites like WikiLeaks would get a great advantage of this sort of protocol.

It sounds like you're looking for the Freenet project.
