If what is said becomes close to reality, I think I might get the Note 6.

Xiaomi Mi5 mini
4.3 inches, Snapdragon 820, 3Gb RAM... if bootloader is unlocked, then i'm sold

I think this makes ChromeOS a viable option for use on phones. The great thing about ChromeOS on phones would be that it uses glibc and seems to be compatible with X11 (it actually uses a display server called Freon but from what I can tell, it is largely compatible with X11). We may start to see phones that have compatible graphics drivers rather than the Android-only mess that we are currently stuck with.
The other nice thing of course is that it also opens up the possibility of having an alternative to Shashlik and sfdroid for running Android apps on normal Linux.

Great ideas; but it will take some serious hacking to get all of this up and running.
Let's hope more people see the same avenues as you.

If you're referring to X11 design flaws, thus security issues, I half take your point but many of those can be mitigated if you know what you are doing. X11 is still the display server of choice on probably over 95% of Linux distros. How about if you ask the same question to desktop Linux users?
What could go wrong?
