If they continue this in Chrome for the Mac, I expect it will go
nowhere. Chrome's adoption consists largely of, and is entirely due
to, technically-savvy early adopters. The kind who have dozens of
browser windows open with tens of tabs in each. If each of these is
consuming a process, they will find Chrome unusable on their machines
and will therefore ignore it.
Recently, I had to quit Safari. Safari told me I had 17 windows open
for a total of 62 tabs. I know Google's whole concept is that you
need no app other than your browser, but in the real world that's not
the case, and I imagine had I been using a Mac version of Chrome my
system would have surreptitiously stopped working.
