Yes there won't be any ammonia use in domestic heating. Ammonia travels well by shipping because you can easily refrigerate it to a liquid, but I doubt it's going to become a widely-distributed fuel.

As toxic as it is, if leaked it goes up fast, so would not blanket a surrounding area like, e.g. methyl isocyanate (cf.). That said, spilling a lot of liquified NH3 could be bad.
