See , that's how you manage an open source project , you listen to your community , and yes people can have relevant suggestions. Angular JS became successful because of its pragmatism but also because it allowed more than 1000 people to contribute to its core, not because it was a "Google project" .

Everybody knows what other project i'm talking about.

Polymer is a pain to use by comparison to practically everything. My understanding is it's meant as basically just a comparability layer.
Yes.

I thought everybody remembered that Polymer was originally intended to be an experiment. It was never meant to amount to much more than a bunch of glorified polyfills (and "prollyfills").
