New Linux Desktop Environment Built on Firefox

IL-CSIXTY4 writes "'Pyro is a new kind of desktop environment for Linux built on Mozilla Firefox. Its goal is to enable true integration between the Web and modern desktop computing.' This looks like an interesting marriage of the web and the desktop. In Pyro, Web apps run in windows on the desktop, right alongside desktop apps (through compositing). Features expected in a desktop environment, like task/window selection and an Expose-like function, are written in Javascript." "

Look; the only reason they made this is because a lot of people thought it would be a good idea. Now some of the same people are shooting it down? I don't get it. I guess I must be new here, or something.
