Both ways are certainly workable, but AFAIK support only older Javascript - something like 6 years or a dog live...
Going for V8 Javascript probably is more future oriented - there should be 4 ways to accomplish this:
- Dotnet with WebView2
- DotNet with CefSharp
- vfp with some C glue with CefSharp (Christoph / Foxpert has already implemented basic connection)
- Selenium with its Choice of browsers but even more awkward interface (needing another connection layer)

Of course ease of use of older COM solutions is much better - certainly point in favor of your solutions
