Call me out of touch but I had no idea this phrase came from Star Wars. I have literally never seen any of the Star Wars movies. I must be channeling George Lucas. Scary!
One language (JavaScript) to rule them all, one data model (XML and DOM) to find them, one set of layout rules (CSS) to bring text, audio, video, and graphics and in the darkness bind them.
Call me cynical, but I believe that if this happened it would make front page news in all the media, a whole bunch more people would read about it and think chasing storms sounded like a nifty idea and the result would be that the next major tornado would have twice as many people chasing it.
That would be a very interesting experiment. After all, the replication time-scale should allow evolution to happen extremely quickly compared to biological experiment. If we found that viruses could evolve into say, GPL software or iPhone apps in order to propagate themselves, I might almost be tempted to believe in evolution.
I know evolution is a much-abused word, but TFA itself states "some malicious codes are a problem difficult to tackle because of their inherent complexity and an intelligent design". Let's give the Intelligent Designer some credit, even when he's a malevolent one. This virus is not going to "evolve" into another form any time soon, it has simple been designed to make limited adaptations to local circumstances.

Why do I have a bad feeling about this?
If Apple adopted it, that would be hard core.
So does this mean we will be able to have our chips powered by chips?
So if people break this law, will they be given sentences for using sentences?

... will we be able to screen for it and avoid it?
Well, property values have gone right down ever since those colored people moved into the area.
Do you think we can persuade John Malkovich to have one of these bionic eyes fitted and turn fiction into reality?

Or maybe Intel should use Coke to make its chips?
I don't think David Hockney would be classed as a child, and he seems pretty enthusiastic about the iPad as a (finger)painting medium.
