BrowserID is only supposed to replace the email/password combo, so I see no reason why it wouldn't catch on (people do give their email/password combinations to sites every day, a much less secure process). Given that BrowserID.com is hosted by a non-profit, it shouldn't raise many privacy concerns either. Anyway, it's true that almost nobody has yet given browserid a try (you can try it at http://textchannels.com http://textchannels.com)
