Don't know why Jolla are falling into the same mistake as Nokia did by trying to write their own browser. They will always be playing catch up.

don't look like a bug, but a performance issue to me, partly due to the fairly limited resource IMHO :S

Most likely those OEMs are looking how SailfishOS is developing and maturing. So far pace has been pretty fast. However, there are several critical components missing, like limitations in Jolla store, native mapping/navigation software etc. Those need to be ironed out before OEM's will make big investments. Also, those OEMs are not like Jolla, it will take them a lot of time to release finalized product, so even if such partnerships were to be finalized, let's say, in November, it will be at least July 2015 before products roll out to customers.
Basic UX has matured a lot over time. However, if you mean by those features that they would need to change the whole UI paradigm to something else, then no, that won't happen. There are many improvements and features in pipeline, but it won't happen in one or two months. IMO it seems like the monthly update release cycle has somehow been interpreted as if everything should happen at once and if [insert some feature here] is missing from next update, or is some big update is late by couple of weeks, it's the end of everything and there is "no progress in anything" and "it's all talk".
