Good stuff. Thank God the Mac version doesn't have that awful blue color that Chrome has on Windows. When Chrome is ripe with all features and add-ons like AdBlock Plus, Firebug and GreaseMonkey -- FF will have to shape up.

I do believe it's possible to achieve this and still be harmonious with the target operating system.

  No we don't. Fitting in with different windows managers is probably going to be a case of distributions skinning Chromium based on their default WM. But we have bigger fish to fry for the moment.

    Having said that. It would be hilarious, so it might be an option :)
