-> I reading this incorrectly?

Each copy of modern Windows already has a "Internet Explorer" component
brower.  It allows ANY application to "pull it" into its own INTERFACE.

Hence, since wcNAV32 is going to be A Windows 32 bit system, and the
majority of people are using IE already, it is a STEP forward to 
augment WCNAV32 with the system the user is probably already using.

Now to answer the question will be optional?

Of course!

Navigator also has a "Browser Component" that applications can
build into there system.   But you (the user) has to install it.

And then we will have a FIELD, just like it is now, to simple
call an existing EXE.

Nothing will change, in that regard.  WcNAV32 will come with
a BUILT-IN Win32 browser component.   

Again, the ODDS are very HIGH that if you are going to be using
windows, now and into the future, MICROSOFT has already "BURNED"
into the operating system the "Browser Technology".

That is what half the LAWSUIT was all about with the FEDS, and
Microsoft "argument" that they have the right to integrate the
OS with internet technology.
