Hear hear. It seems to me that any such effort either has to be built on the Linux kernel (forgoing much of the horrid userland) or rely on a something like Fuchsia that's backed by a large corporate entity becoming so widely used as to have significant driver buy-in from hardware manufacturers. Unfortunately, I don't believe that relying on a for-profit third party entity like Google is a good idea due to the conflict of interest, even if their OS is FOSS. Just look at what Google has done throwing its weight around as the big-man in browsers, even though the browser engine is FOSS.
