I don't consider allowing multiple browsers an important goal, if it
costs us much. I think allowing the development of one good small
non-nautilus browser might be an interesting goal though. (Mostly
because I think it could have a better UI than Nautilus for help
browsing, just a small simple thing like the Windows browser.)

Of course there's nothing wrong with multiple browsers being allowed,
I just wouldn't fall over ourselves to do it.
