What specifically don't suit you in current version of SDL?
The DS is designed in such a way that you can write anything at any time with hardware acceleration with PVR or Parallax API, on top of the built-in UI on SDL. But of course DS doesn't have hardware GUI API, so you need write your own buttons and so on.
Rewrite DS GUI API for hardware rendered it's like a developing new DreamShell 5.0 and rewrite all apps.

I am using the object to create threads with SDL to load images faster, it works, the problem is that when I try to kill the thread it gets stuck, it is better to change to Pthread.h and with that library it works, I think it may contain errors.

You can use pthreads or KOS kernel threads API.
But I think your issue not from SDL in general. What you mean "kill thread" and what in this thread executed?
Threads can't speed up something on single core CPU , you get it as pseudo async nothing more.

Of course no It's too complicated to do. And modern sites are very gluttonous, Dreamcast can no longer do anything about it.
HTML parsing it is not a problem, the library that is used for XML in applications can handle this I think, and I made DS XML similar to HTML. But this is very, very far from modern HTML.
