Well, yea it possible.  But the amount of data the would have to be
generated and stored would flipping insane.  Just think about the
possible combinations of browser and plugin.  Plus, having to parse
and categorize every page.  Then searching through it.  The
maintenance on the browser+plugin combo tables alone would be
massive.  

Finally, define "appropriate".  Complete rendering with no visual or
script errors?  Good enough to read the words but the design breaks? 
The choice combinations here are massive as well.

Sure it's possible.  Practical?
