The problem, however, is not the browser but web service vendors. If workarounds for buggy web services become more painful, there will be more pressure on those vendors to fix their software. It's not that the pain isn't real, but the pain already exists and you can either choose a future where more browsers are better leading to more web services being less buggy or a future where browsers stagnate because web services are buggy and their vendors unwilling to fix them.
