I think future Web standards should take out the Gecko/Chrome/IE layout+parsing engine and make it a separate library. Standardize a minimalistic (but powerful) GL-style presentation API.
Why are standards committees dictating developer workflow? We should be able to swap in our own parser and UI framework (which is what DOM is) that fits the specific website/webapp needs best. Not reinventing the wheel, of course - things would naturally coalesce into ubiquitous standard libraries, but a bit more competitively.
