First off, there'll prolly be some security sandboxing stuff, who knows how intrusive/scary/confusing and (un)intuitive that's gonna be, second, that's prolly gonna be used by javascript, hence forget about all performance related apps like HandBrake, third Gnome 3 came a lot later than first planned - same could happen with this project, forth it only sounds plausible but it's likely just a toy project, and last but not least, who knows how the apis will (have to) be changed to take into account all the stuff that changes when you go from the desktop into the browser. It feels a lot like Chrome OS - overhyped as something new & cool but really just a toy that Google failed to deliver and when people try it they (finally) realize there's hardly serious reasons for non-techies to use it on a daily basis. Just my 0.04$ (0.04 because of inflation).

It's still better than KDE4, anyway.
