Google is trying substitute the OS with their browser. The rest is accordingly to this goal. They'll be exposing more and more of underlying OS functionality on one hand and turning Chrome to be a fully fledged IDE as well. Web and at some point traditional app developers will play along as well since having one platform to develop for is very attractive idea. Web components is just on of many other steps towards this goal. So yes I'm afraid that at some point we will all end up being servants of Google. Hopefully something will prevent this from happening.
