Speaking as a web dev; it still sucks when the whole world has coded against a piece of software, rather than a standard, even if that software currently has a relatively permissive license.

Take Microsoft; they decided they didn't even want to maintain their own engine. This ultimately means they're generally relying on the core maintenance of the main Webkit channel, and probably not scrutinizing its workings all that much, as they just work on new features.
