Full rewrite is an ambitious, but very good initiative. Firefox has done (and is still doing) a great service to the web, but its origins can be traced to the Netscape Navigator, one of the very first web browsers. For a huge system like this, it is hard, if not impossible, to change the fundamental architectural decisions, such as a single process model. It is better to take the experience and design a new system from scratch. I hope Servo can avoid the second system syndrome.
