I doubt that lynx, with the code that now exists for it, will get any
better than it is now.  Perhaps "Son of Lynx", designed and written
from scratch to be a new super whoopie lisp/scheme/ml/hot language of
the week based browser, may stir some student's interest in revolutionizing
the web, but other than that, what we have now is what we will be living
with, with the exception of evolutionary improvements such as Fote
provided over the past few years.
