Are you talking about what 'most people' want when you speak of a
reboot?
Because I doubt whether people who are afraid of _SSH_ (of all
things) will choose a suite of less-sucking web applications if
they can pervert Firefox into doing everything. Any _popular_
reboot would have to require people to change very little about
their habits, and to do no hard thinking about the nature of the
Web--if possible, no thinking at all.
