You are describe textbook anti-competitive behavior.
Using certain deals, to enforce exclusivity in this way, is a text book anti-trust violation (if it is determined that google has significant market power).
If a company has significant market power, then just can't do what you are suggesting.
In fact, I believe that Microsoft lost their anti-trust case, for doing almost the exact same behavior, of preventing preloading of other browser.
