You can put a cheap binocular camera on the goggles to give people a quick way to see the outside world, kind of like how the Sony NC headphones let you hear the outside world when you put your hand over one of the pads. I don't really see that as a major barrier for VR.
Currently the major barrier I foresee is the 3D TV & glasses issue. Many people just don't want to bother or care about setting up 3D TV content and glasses. It's why things like the occulus go exist.

It's pretty useful for quickly checking something in the environment, or grabbing a glass of water, etc. [0]: Apparently the lens distortion makes it not map perfectly 1:1 and putting it in like, "night vision" mode makes that less nausea inducing).
