If this is what should happen, then eventually will it not reduce competition? And if other browser developers thought this way too, it would ultimately stall the innovation in browser development. I think they are going the right way with IE9: * Sticking to standards (at least claimed as of now) * Not creating proprietary APIs (hopefully. I'm not sure about this) * Improving speed * Rapid iterations of the browser, all this _while_ keeping an eye on security is a good thing for the industry as a whole since it keeps browsers competing with each other. (NB. I'm not too trusting of MS but they seem to be behaving better than they used to)
