I believe they wants text browser written specifically in rust, and does not want to touch any software written in filth like c/c++.

Too bad Rust compiles with LLVM (C++) and the stdlib links to glibc (C) then.

I sincerely hope it isn't the reason though, I'm a huge rust fan myself (10years of coding with it already) and I think rust is definitely the future, but that doesn't mean all previous open source foundations should be thrown away.
