I am not sure that more abstraction is needed, though maybe to cope with discovery protocol data filtering.
Using the NSD API in the context of a browser extension may be much simpler than for an untrusted web app: no UI, no data filtering, no CORS, no whitelisting...
Reorganizing the spec so that browser developers can start implementing the easy bits in a consistent way may help adoption.
