More or less as you describe, for your IRS returns, of arbitrary complexity and value.

This is sort of what I'm getting at. These are my taxes. I honestly don't want to involve a third party or sketchy links leading to janky websites. I want to go to IRS.gov, download a form, fill it out, submit it, all within a very limited context and with the smallest amount of feedback that the process completed successfully so I can relieve myself of the burden for another year.
The IRS actually already has the forms. It needs the scripting. It needs a digital submission system. That should be it and should be most of what average taxpayers actually need.
The site is actually run in a partnership between the IRS and Intuit and some other company. The GOP prevented it from being branded as an IRS "product".
