Will USB (serial communications) function with GP in a web browser?

Hello all,
I am currently working on my Senior Project, a combined IDE/compiler/upload system for the LEGO NTX/EV3 robotics system. My team would like for this program to live and function in a web page, so that educators do not have to download software to their computers to get started using the program. The ability of GP to run in a browser and it's feature set make it very appealing.
As we are programming the hardware, the serial port/USB connectivity portion of GP is very important to us. I saw a mention that some features of GP are not available when running in browser mode, but only file operations were explicitly mentioned. Are the serial port functions still operational when running in the browser?
Thanks
