No it is not safe to let a browser touch your private keys! Ever!
The good news is that they don't need to. They can simply send a message to be signed.
For Nostr this is defined in NIP-46 and a number of signing apps are in development. Your Nostr PWA just needs a 'sign in' button, you can then choose (using a trusted app) which acount to log in with, and what permissions to grant.
Is this what getalby does?

Or it would be more like an offline ledger type of device to sign messages for your pwa? Like something I saw Ben Arc do recently in a nostrica session?

browser extensions don't really work on mobile
it could be offline, or a server such as nsecbunker, but it could also be a native app (such as damus or amethyst)
the developers just need to find time to add NIP-46 support!
