There is one subtlty in the LUGNET posting that you reference - "a fully inlined model".
I'm not sure I see how a WebGL-based viewer could inline all the subparts and primitives referenced by the individual PT file. The LDView implementation on the back-end has access to the full unofficial and official libraries.
