Dart is supposed to be "boring". Their intention was to create a language which is familiar to anyone who used Java, C#, AS3, JavaScript, or any other C-like language in the past.
From my own experience, I'd say that this strategy worked exactly as intended. I was able to write code after skimming through some of the examples. To be honest, I only bothered with Dart because it used C-like syntax.
Also, it compiles to surprisingly fast JavaScript [1]. Support by all browser vendors isn't necessary. You can use it either way. The lack of support really doesn't change anything. You'd use a build/deploy script either way, wouldn't you?
