So far, I've noticed the Canvas user can be logged into office 365 in another tab of the same browser and, while viewing the open embedded document through WordOnline in that tab, the Canvas page in the other tab will show the document embedded. I've gone through a number of variations/scenarios with multiple browsers and doing things such as copying and pasting a link to the document shared to all into the iframe html originally created, and other extraneous things most of faculty wouldn't be open to doing, to no avail...
Do you think folk in an institution with higher permissions to it's office 365 have the capacity to change a permission to allow embedded content to show outside of their "instance"(?) of office 365? This backwardness seems to dovetail with the Microsoft mental model. <joke>Should we just be happy we can use office 365 outside of Internet Explorer? </joke>
