What I really want in Linux is good defaults that treat users as infants playing with scisssors Sounds like you want Chromium OS :-) Fully open source, Linux-based, and it's hardened to the point where neither the user, nor an attacker, can execute any abitrary code outside a sandbox without a Chrome and/or Linux 0day. You even get VMs with seamless Wayland-based desktop integration with a normal Linux distro inside, and you can create multiple VMs if you have different security levels. If you enable crash reporting, Google will find and triage crashes for you and would quite possibly catch buggy exploits, and maybe tell you about it. But, this is very far from what most people want in a Linux distro.
