It's gonna need a major GUI overall before could be considered as a replacement for MicroB for me. I'm really hoping SSU will significantly decouple application updates from major releases. Going back to frequent MicroB updates would be a very significant benefit, especially with the speed that Gecko is rolling along.

At least Diablo should be bringing MicroB inline upstream, though. Which means we get that 5.9x Javascript speedup, too (perhaps more if there is more tablet-specific optimization taking place).
